Mayday.ai

Exhibitors

Mayday.ai is a German company with Californian roots. It uses earth observation data,

including Copernicus and AI technologies for real time disaster and risk intelligence. The

company covers multiple disasters and all geographical regions of the world. It addresses all

phases of the disaster cycle and in line with the UN's Sendai Framework, it aims at achieving

a culture shift towards prevention and preparedness instead of response and recovery.

Mayday's innovative approach has been recognised by the European Space Agency and the

German Aerospace Centre (DLR), which have support the company's activities through the

ESA Incubed programme.

Mayday achieves an unprecedented timeliness and accuracy by the processing of a high

number of sensor data through Mayday's proprietary AI fusion engine, which includes more

than 300 satellites, about 35,000 traffic cameras, drone imagery and social media. An

important building block are sensors of the Copernicus programme, whose value is further

extended by a number of Mayday's solutions.

For crisis management, Mayday.ai provides early detection, as well as a common operating

picture. The Mayday platform includes a number of data layers and views, as well as live

dashboard reporting. Users can easily customise this reporting themselves and it can be

event or community centric. Event validation/impact assessment is supported with a

»before-after« views and it is complemented by high-resolution imagery and SAR-based

analyses on demand.

Through its mobile app, Mayday enables a two-way communication with civilians and

profiling/triaging in a crisis event context.

Mayday is in the process of launching a number of operational centres where its staff will

support organisations with disaster management 24/7, with the first centre opening its doors

in Santiago de Chile.

The culture shift towards prevention and preparedness is driven by Mayday's risk modelling

approach is based on machine learning which has considerable advantages to traditional

probabilistic approaches. Risk modelling is dynamic (risk levels are being adjusted in real

time) and at a high level of granularity (i.e. up to parcel level).

Mayday's is an extension of the market-leading Esri platform, which allows a deployment on

desktops and mobiles in a few clicks and an easy integration into enteprise ERPs. The

platform is built on a modular approach. This allows integration of modules tailored for

verticals, like insurance - e.g. underwriting or claim processing can be added to the suite
