Using satellite data, biological data, and citizen-generated data.

One of the recent proposals to come out of the World Economic Forum (WEF) is to develop ways to harvest and monetize satellite data, biological data, and citizen-generated data.

Penned by MIT Media Lab research engineer Minoo Rathnasabapathy and Helen Burdett, who heads WEF’s Technology Strategy, and posted on the group’s website, the proposal calls for putting all this spuriously collected, in the first place, data – “to good use” now.
