ABOUT COSMIQ WORKS

Founded in 2015 as a technology challenge lab within In-Q-Tel (IQT), CosmiQ Works was an IQT Lab focused on developing, prototyping, and evaluating emerging open source artificial intelligence capabilities for geospatial use cases. Artificial intelligence will fundamentally change how geospatial analytics is performed and CosmiQ Works helps accelerates development and adoption of these technologies into deployable products. And by the way, it’s pronounced “Cosmic.”

As of March 2021, CosmiQ Works has been folded into IQT Labs.
