* [[Data management, cleaning and imputation|'''Data management, cleaning and imputation''']]: ML can help with cleaning, merging and completing datasets that are relevant for policy-making.
* '''[[Remote sensingSensing|'''Remote sensing]]''']]: Satellite data can provide a lot of valuable information to policy makers, for example by helping map infrastructure, land use and ecosystem health. The field of remote sensing has seen large improvements with ML.
* '''[[Computational text analysis]]:''' Text documents are an important source of information to inform climate policy. Natural language processing can help to analyze large corpora of text.
 
Line 26:
* '''Urban planning:''' With new techniques such as [[surrogate modeling]], ML can help with complex planning tasks.
* '''[[Power System Planning]]:''' Algorithms for planning new low-carbon energy infrastructure are often large and slow. ML can help speed up or provide proxies for these algorithms.
* '''[[Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs)|Integrated assessment models]]:''' IAMs are large simulations used to explore future societal pathways that are consistent with climate goals, which can be improved with ML.
