Several members of [CorrelAidX Berlin](/correlaid-x/berlin) recently took part in the [Open Cities AI Challenge](https://www.drivendata.org/competitions/60/building-segmentation-disaster-resilience/page/151/), hosted by DrivenData and co-organized by [Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR)](https://www.gfdrr.org/en) of the World Bank. In this post, we will share some learnings of our group effort with the CorrelAid community.

### What are data science competitions?

At a data science competition, a problem sponsor asks the worldwide community to solve a data problem in the best possible way. There are a few platforms that host such competitions, [Kaggle](kaggle.com) being the most famous. [DrivenData](https://www.drivendata.org/competitions/) is a similar platform but has a focus on positive social impact competitions, which motivated our participation as CorrelAiders. In our case, the competition was a binary classification problem: we were provided with drone imagery from major African cities and were asked to classify each pixel in the picture, determining whether the pixel represents a building or not. The long-term goal of GFDRR, the competition sponsor, is to be able to quickly estimate the amount of material damages after a natural disaster (earthquakes, etc.) by comparing the drone imagery before and after the disaster. To find the best classifier, all competitors got a training and a test data set. In the end, we submitted a CSV with predictions on the test set, that is on data that the model has not yet seen, and it was rated in terms of a specific performance metric (in our case, the [Jaccard index](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaccard_index)).
