Two teams from SAP worked on extensive mobile solutions to mitigate air pollution/ quality check scenarios, while one of the teams worked on creating a complete Space portal that would consolidate the vast amount of NASA data/ knowledge spread across the internet. The team from MSRIT worked on creating an algorithm/ solution that would predict the status of flights by tapping into the data from NASA as well as other sources. Their solution involved machine learning and predictive analysis. This team from MSRT was chosen as one of the qualifiers form this leg.
