# Ai2 releases satellite embeddings that let mapping teams skip repeat model runs

**OlmoEarth v1.3 supplies precomputed 10-meter features and a browser-based mapping tool. Coverage is global for 2024 and 2025, near-global for 2023, and limited to selected countries for 2017-2022; Ai2 says its embeddings led two named competitors on most of its evaluations.**

## Why it matters

Precomputed features let mapping teams test many downstream questions without rerunning a large satellite model for each one. OlmoEarth makes that data publicly accessible, but the uneven year-by-year coverage and artifact license restrictions shape where and how teams can use it.

[Ai2](https://allenai.org/?ref=runtimewire), the Seattle nonprofit founded in 2014 by late Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, released [OlmoEarth v1.3](https://huggingface.co/blog/allenai/olmoearth-v1-3?ref=runtimewire) on October 22nd. The release pairs a satellite model with precomputed annual embeddings: reusable features intended to let researchers make new maps without running the model over satellite imagery again for each task.…
