IMAGE ANALYSIS FOR AERIAL IMAGES - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20230419501 titled 'IMAGE ANALYSIS FOR AERIAL IMAGES
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a system that includes a data-processing system with a data-storage component, a segmentation component, and a projection component.
- The data-storage component provides an input orthophoto map and an input digital elevation model of an area.
- The segmentation component generates polygons based on the input orthophoto map, approximating different parts of the map.
- The projection component projects the polygons onto the input digital elevation model.
- The projection component also generates a reference surface for each polygon.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Geographic information systems (GIS)
- Urban planning and development
- Environmental monitoring and analysis
- Agriculture and land management
Problems solved by this technology:
- Efficiently segmenting and analyzing large-scale orthophoto maps
- Accurately projecting polygons onto digital elevation models
- Generating reference surfaces for analysis and comparison
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved accuracy and efficiency in analyzing geographic data
- Enhanced visualization and understanding of terrain and land features
- Facilitates decision-making in various fields such as urban planning and agriculture
- Enables better management and utilization of land resources
Original Abstract Submitted
disclosed is a system comprising a data-processing system. the data-processing system comprises a data-storage component, a segmentation component and a projection component. the data-storage component is configured for providing an input orthophoto map of an area and an input digital elevation model of the area. the segmentation component is configured for performing a segmentation step, the segmentation step comprises generating at least one or a plurality of polygon(s) based on the input orthophoto map. each polygon approximates a part of the input orthophoto map. the projection component is configured for performing a projection step and the projection step comprises projecting the polygon(s) on the input digital elevation model of the area. the projection component is further configured for performing a reference surface generation step, the reference surface generation step comprising generating a reference surface for each of at least some of the polygon(s). further, a corresponding method and a corresponding computer-program product are disclosed.
