The control of images makes it possible to generate information, to carry out calculations and to obtain predictions in many fields of application. The analysis of images of the planet makes it possible to follow the evolution of the biodiversity of a forest, to estimate the health of plantations or to evaluate the impact of natural disasters. In the medical sector, engineers help doctors with the creation of tools that allow the acquisition and reconstruction of images of the human body to facilitate its analysis.
Information technology is used for health care thanks to data management and AI, which contribute to improving access to health care for citizens by means of pre-diagnosis medical devices or guidance within the care process.
