Help train a delivery drone and benefit SnoCo Makerspace!
Zipline (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOWDNBu9DkU) is looking to expand to Seattle and they are hoping to gather LIDAR and photogrammetry data to check for edge cases. (The story that my friend tells is that one of their shuttles got back to base completely waterlogged in Florida. They pulled the black box data and found that the shuttle landed in the middle of a pool, the computer vision system classified the pool as "lawn" because of an out of control algae bloom, and so now before expanding service anywhere they collect training data on the drones to try to root out edge cases).
