SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING SENSITIVE GEO-SPATIAL PROCESSING IN NON-SENSITIVE OPERATOR ENVIRONMENTS
First Claim
1. A method, comprising the steps of:
- dividing, by a processor of a server computer, a sensitive geographic region of interest of a requester into three or more work regions;
selecting, by the processor of the server computer, one or more geo-referenced aerial images for each particular work region such that at least a portion of the particular work region is depicted in the one or more geo-referenced aerial images;
transmitting, by the processor of the server computer, image raster content of a first of the geo-referenced aerial images for a first of the work regions to an operator user device without a location represented by the first geo-referenced aerial image being selected by a data processing operator of the operator user device and without information indicative of geographic location of a geographic area depicted in the geo-referenced aerial image, wherein the data processing operator is different from the requester;
receiving, by the processor of the server computer from the operator user device, at least one first image coordinate representing an object or region of interest selected within the first geo-referenced aerial image by the data processing operator of the operator user device, wherein the first image coordinate is a relative coordinate based on a unique pixel location within the image raster content of the first geo-referenced aerial image, the pixel location having pixel row and pixel column coordinates; and
transmitting, by the processor of the server computer, image raster content of a second of the geo-referenced aerial images for a second of the work regions to the operator user device without the location represented by the second geo-referenced aerial image being selected by the data processing operator of the operator user device and without information indicative of geographic location of a geographic area depicted in the second geo-referenced aerial image, wherein the second work region is not geographically contiguous with the first work region.

Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed including dividing a sensitive geographic region into three or more work regions; selecting geo-referenced aerial images for each particular work region such that at least a portion of the particular work region is depicted; transmitting, without information indicative of the geographic location depicted, a first of the images for a first of the work regions to an operator user device; receiving, from the device, at least one image coordinate selected within the first image by the operator, wherein the image coordinate is a relative coordinate based on a unique pixel location within the image raster content of the first image; and transmitting, without information indicative of the geographic location depicted, a second of the images for a second of the work regions to the operator user device, wherein the first and second work regions are not geographically contiguous.

10. A system, comprising:
-
a secure server computer having a processor; and one or more geo-referenced aerial image accessible by the processor of the server computer, the geo-referenced aerial images containing image raster content depicting an area, geo-referencing information, and real-world geographic coordinates of the geo-referenced aerial image; and wherein the processor of the server computer executes computer executable instructions to cause the processor to; divide a sensitive geographic region of interest of a requester into three or more work regions; select one or more geo-referenced aerial images for each particular work region such that at least a portion of the particular work region is depicted in the one or more geo-referenced aerial images; transmit image raster content of a first of the geo-referenced aerial images for a first of the work regions to an operator user device without a location represented by the geo-referenced aerial image being selected by a data processing operator of the operator user device, wherein the data processing operator is different from the requester, without information indicative of geographic location of a geographic area depicted in the geo-referenced aerial image; receive, from the operator user device, at least one first image coordinate representing an object or region of interest selected within the first geo-referenced aerial image by the data processing operator of the operator user device, wherein the first image coordinate is a relative coordinate based on a unique pixel location within the image raster content of the first geo-referenced aerial image, the pixel location having pixel row and pixel column coordinates; and transmit image raster content of a second of the geo-referenced aerial images for a second of the work regions to the operator user device without the location represented by the geo-referenced aerial image being selected by the data processing operator of the operator user device, without information indicative of geographic location of a geographic area depicted in the geo-referenced aerial image, wherein the second work region is not geographically contiguous with the first work region. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)
