Generative AI for simulating landscapes before and after restoration activities

Hi all.

Has anyone come across any generative AI tools that could be trained and used to generate photorealistic landscapes (in a web application) from habitat maps and then re-generate them at different timescales after specific restoration activities? I'm particularly thinking about how an app could rapidly show changes as 2D and 3D simulation over time at project sites (of landscape scale) using 'as-is' habitat mapping and then how the landscape would change and look over time. Or am I leaping ahead of what's currently possible?!




Yep we are working on it
