Drones and AI Help Restore Great Wall of China

Intel and the China Foundation for Cultural Heritage Conservation (CFCHC) entered an agreement to use Intel’s artificial intelligence (AI) and drone technology capabilities for restoration of the Jiankou section of the Great Wall of China. The drones fly above the Great Wall and inspect it for any damage.

A statement on Intel’s website explains the project and how it will achieve results. Experts from Wuhan University’s Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing (LIESMARS) also are part of the project.
