On July 29, the third symposium on the Application of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence in Marine Environment Analysis, Prediction, Disaster Prevention and Reduction was held in Qingdao. The conference aims to deeply discuss the application of scientific big data and artificial intelligence (AI) technology in Marine environment analysis, prediction and disaster prevention and reduction, improve the efficiency of Marine big data query and analysis, improve the effectiveness and accuracy of Marine environment forecast and the comprehensive decision-making ability of Marine disaster prevention and reduction.

The conference invited more than 100 domestic and foreign experts and scholars engaged in the application of big data and artificial intelligence in the ocean for academic sharing and exchange.

Dr. Zhou Zheng, founder And CEO of Ninecosmos Science And Technology, and Dr. Wang Mingqing, Intelligent Forecasting Division were invited to attend the conference and deliver a special invited report. According to Zhou, on the basis of traditional numerical simulation technology, Jiufang Technology has successfully applied artificial intelligence and high performance computing technology in the development process of numerical forecasting and meteorological products, greatly improving the forecast accuracy and calculation speed. At present, the research results have been successfully applied to various application scenarios, such as port precision forecast, ocean shipping meteorological navigation, Marine ecological chemical simulation, etc. In the future, the technology will also provide precise meteorological support services for industries such as clean energy, smart agriculture, road transportation, and disaster prevention and reduction. Dr. Wang introduced in detail the specific cases of Jiufang Technology in AI-assisted Earth system research and shared valuable experience.

The two-day seminar provided a good platform for academic exchange and achievement display for experts and scholars. It also built a bridge for cross-border communication between the Marine and computer fields, realized the application of advanced algorithms in Marine environment analysis, prediction and disaster prevention and reduction, and made the two disciplines of big data, artificial intelligence and Marine science better cross integration. The collision results in richer ideas and results.
