Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI), a company specializing in artificial intelligence-powered defense and security technologies, has secured a significant contract to enhance Ukraine’s humanitarian demining operations. The contract, awarded by the Ukrainian Deminers Association (UDA) under a United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS) Program, aims to leverage American AI technology to address the pervasive issue of landmines and unexploded ordnance in Ukraine.
Ukraine faces considerable challenges with landmines, affecting over six million residents living in or near contaminated zones. This crisis also hampers agricultural activities, with an estimated $11 billion in annual business at stake. The humanitarian demining initiative is crucial for civilian safety, restoring agricultural land, and aiding economic recovery.
Under the agreement, Safe Pro Group Inc. will collaborate with the UDA and receive support from UNMAS to integrate advanced technologies into demining processes. The initial project will employ SpotlightAI, a cloud-based AI platform designed for image analysis and threat mapping. This system will utilize unmanned aerial systems, like drones, and remote sensing technologies to inspect contaminated areas and enhance the quality management of demining operations.
Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc., emphasized the partnership’s potential to provide AI-based tools that protect civilians and enable communities to reclaim affected lands. This agreement follows a recent subcontract from the U.S. Department of State awarded to the company for its patented AI threat detection and mapping technology in a separate demining project in Ukraine. These initiatives highlight a growing interest in using digital systems to improve the safety and efficiency of mine action activities.
SpotlightAI operates on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and is part of Safe Pro Group’s patented Ground Truth software ecosystem. The platform’s machine learning algorithms analyze imagery from Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) drones to identify small, difficult-to-detect threats across extensive areas. The company’s dataset includes over 3.2 million drone images and more than 60,200 confirmed detections collected from over 40,520 acres in Ukraine, potentially contributing to more effective humanitarian demining efforts through improved threat identification, mapping, and operational oversight.
