Methods and systems for automatic object detection from aerial imagery
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations for detecting objects from aerial imagery, the operations comprising:
- obtaining a Digital Surface Model (DSM) image of an area;
obtaining one or more DSM images representing one kind of target objects; and
detecting at least one of the kind of target objects in the area based on one or more matches between the one or more DSM images and the DSM image of the area.

Abstract
Methods and systems for detecting objects from aerial imagery are disclosed. According to certain embodiments, the method may include obtaining a Digital Surface Model (DSM) image of an area. The method may also include obtaining a DSM image of one or more target objects. The method may further include detecting the target object in the area based on the DSM images of the area and the one or more target objects. The method may further include recognizing the detected target objects by artificial intelligence. The method may further include acquiring the positions of the recognized target objects. The method may further include calculating the number of the recognized target objects.
