Ever wanted to chat with OpenStreetMap? In this session, we walk through some of the Earth Genome’s initial explorations of using AI-powered interfaces for working with geospatial data, including OpenStreetMap data. In this effort, we’ve created ChatGeoPT, a toy Geospatial AI Assistant. ChatGeoPT translates natural language text into OSM Overpass API calls, reads the API response data, and translates the data into natural language and actionable insights. It also remembers the history of a conversation, allowing for iteration and collaborative problem solving. Use of ChatGeoPT reveals the promise and potential pitfalls of AI-powered geospatial applications.
