SCALABLE VISUAL ANALYTICS FOR REMOTE SENSING APPLICATIONS

Abstract:

Methods and systems for generating a composite image in remote sensing applications are described. In an example, a device can receive an image having a plurality of points specified in an image space. The device can extract a portion of the image and transform points among the extracted portion from the image space to a parameter space defined by a distance parameter and an orientation parameter. The device can identify a set of intersection points in the parameter space that indicate at least one occurrence of a geometry feature in the extracted portion of the image. The device can augment the portion of the image with a plurality of new pixels based on the identified set of intersection points. The device can generate a composite image using the augmented image, where the composite image can include a plurality of augmented images corresponding to other portions of the image.
