On December 4th, 2025 the Star, page 17, put out an extensive article, entitled “AI, open datasets being used to help communities plan.” Here is an excerpt from the article: “Canterbury University researchers are using AI and open datasets to create affordable, accurate elevation maps that will help communities plan and adapt to a changing climate. Xiandong Cai and Professor Matthew Wilson from the university’s Geospatial Research Institute developed a deep learning model called joint spatial propagation super resolution (JSPSR) that uses AI to dramatically enhance global satellite elevation data.”
