HSR.health
Ajay K Gupta is Chief Executive Officer of HSR.Health. I met him via Priscilla Cole’s Geospatial Risk Summit in January in Manhattan this year. HSR.health is a company in the Global Top 100 Geospatial Companies – 2025 Edition from Geoawesome. I voted on the selection panel 2022-2023 but not the year HSR was voted in. Another item discussed was AWS funding for their Anna platform (as it is novel tech). Additionally we talked through Poseidon Plastic Tracking System, an ocean trash programme. Finally, there was discussion of their Heat-Health Risk Index.
Toward the end of the discussion, Ajay made some comments about how foundation models could help in health applications of geospatial. It was good to see mention of this outside of the usual earth observation applications.
