Details

EXPLORE is a machine learning software tool developed by Natural Resources Canada that helps industrial facilities model their processes, predict outcomes, and optimize operations to reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions. Industries run the tool locally on their own data, connecting to their databases to clean data, build predictive models, and monitor key performance indicators. The tool is used by both government employees and industry partners, and operates on industrial process data rather than personal information about members of the public.
