What RASID is
RASID is an innovation-led technology and consultancy company turning complex data into decision-ready intelligence. We combine AI, data engineering, software development and geospatial technologies to build practical, production-ready solutions. Our work spans AI consultancy, bespoke R&D projects and data digital transformation, alongside our niche expertise in Earth Observation.
What GoPilot is
GoPilot is the #1 GeoAgent by RASID. It connects language models to Earth-observation data, geospatial tools and AI models, allowing users to describe what they need in natural language. GoPilot finds relevant data, selects and runs the appropriate analytical workflow, and returns maps, raster and vector layers, measurements and other results.
How GoPilot works
GoPilot turns a geospatial question into an executable analysis workflow. First, it interprets the request and plans the workflow. Second, it retrieves the relevant imagery and Earth-observation data. Third, it selects and runs appropriate AI models and geospatial operations, such as segmentation, detection and change analysis. Fourth, it returns the results as downloadable raster and vector layers alongside the numbers that matter. The workflow and results are surfaced to the user, making the analysis transparent and reproducible.
One interface over 10,000+ datasets
GoPilot reaches more than 10,000 datasets and hundreds of AI models through one interface. Data sources include Sentinel-2 optical imagery, high-resolution optical imagery, DEM elevation, ERA5 climate reanalysis, and foundation-model embeddings such as Clay and AlphaEarth. Because the catalogue is accessible through natural language, both geospatial specialists and users who do not work directly with GIS tools can use the same interface.
GoServers API/MCP
GoPilot capabilities are exposed through the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as four GoServers: GoServer-Fetch for data, GoServer-Geo for geospatial operations, GoServer-Analyze for raster and time-series analysis, and GoServer-AI for model inference. GoPilot orchestrates these services to retrieve data, perform geospatial processing and run AI models.
GIS plugins
RASID also provides plugins for QGIS and ArcGIS Pro, allowing existing GIS teams to use GoPilot within their established workflows.
Beyond GoPilot
RASID also delivers bespoke geospatial consultancy and R&D projects for organisations with specific Earth-observation and AI requirements. We develop custom AI models, geospatial datasets, data pipelines and software for real-world applications.
