(Boaz Ash) What do you do when you’ve captured millions of aerial images across thousands of kilometers and want to find the handful of problems that could take out a state’s power supply? This talk explores how we built a full-stack system — combining machine learning, Django, and self hosted infrastructure — to identify critical anomalies in Australia’s electricity transmission network.
You’ll learn how we perform image processing at scale, reducing an overwhelming data problem into a handful of insights that matter and how we present these results to users.
