    The rise of foundational models has changed the AI landscape fundamentally, and brings its promise to geospatial data. Geospatial foundation models have the potential to produce useful results faster and cheaper than any previous approaches. Automated detection of critical semantic elements in imagery such as floods or deforestation is becoming possible. We explore real world applications of these new models, and pose the question: how do we crack the code and make the earth truly queryable?
