But there is a huge gulf between the technical software of geographical information systems and infrastructure planning on one hand, and the retail and entertainment data that is promoted in consumer products like Google Maps. The city of Nairobi is thinking ahead through an Urban re-engineering Taskforce, including a vision for Nairobi Railway City. Your role..."

Your task is to create a similar tool that could be used to demonstrate image generation biases relevant to visual disabilities. You may also need to consider how this tool can be made accessible to users who have visual..."

This project will integrate remote satellite sensing from the Google Earth Engine with local bioacoustic surveys from the BTO acoustic pipeline, to visualise both historical and projected future measures, supporting land managers to make decisions about crops. harvests, irrigation, tour..." current

Unfortunately, applicants can often fool the test by finding answers online, or even generating a response automatically using an AI chatbot. Your task is to create an authoring and administration tool for aptitude question banks that automatically benchmarks them against such strategies, helping the question author to..." current

Your task is to create a tool for use by traders, that annotates investment tips with a history of where they came from. This is likely to require some research into text processing algorithms and statistics, as well as an intuitive front end that helps users understand the "genetics" of specific investment trends and memes."

The Sibelius tools make it very easy to print music in the way it has looked for 200 years or more, but very hard to adapt with typographic innovations that make music easier.

It is terrible in situations where the “wisdom of crowds” fails, and the Internet (or Reddit) never had the right answer. There are known strategies to compensate for this. Your task is to build an online platform for question answering that does exactly what ChatGPT can’t, by using those social metrics to reliably identify the answers that are surprising but true."
