By using Data mining, data preparation and machine learning we deliver new trends, insights and patterns on a multitude of possible high volume and high-dimensional data formats (data can be structured data from our Schiphol DWH sources, texts, images, API’s, webscraping etc.). What we are doing with this? Think with us. We are a Lab and no idea is crazy enough as long as it is providing value for our airport and involves smart application of machine learning intelligence.
