CLASSIFICATION OF LAND BASED ON ANALYSIS OF REMOTELY-SENSED EARTH IMAGES
First Claim
1. A land classification system operable for analysis of very high resolution (VHR) remotely-sensed multispectral Earth imagery, comprising:
- an image store containing image data corresponding to VHR remotely-sensed multispectral Earth images;
at least one feature extraction module in operative communication with the image store, the feature extraction module being operable to produce feature data regarding at least a portion of image data;
a feature stack comprising the image data and the feature data;
a client interface operable to receive training data regarding at least one or more pixels of the image data from a user regarding at least one class to which the one or more pixels belong; and
a classification compute module operable to generate a classification model at least in part based on a portion of the feature stack corresponding to the one or more pixels and the training data, wherein the classification model relates to classification of pixels of image data into one or more classes.

Abstract
Land classification based on analysis of image data. Feature extraction techniques may be used to generate a feature stack corresponding to the image data to be classified. A user may identify training data from the image data from which a classification model may be generated using one or more machine learning techniques applied to one or more features of the image. In this regard, the classification module may in turn be used to classify pixels from the image data other than the training data. Additionally, quantifiable metrics regarding the accuracy and/or precision of the models may be provided for model evaluation and/or comparison. Additionally, the generation of models may be performed in a distributed system such that model creation and/or application may be distributed in a multi-user environment for collaborative and/or iterative approaches.
