Systems and methods for efficient feature based image and video analysis

摘要

Systems (100) and methods (300) for efficient spatial feature data analysis. The methods involve simultaneously generating chip images using image data defining at least a first image and video chips using video data defining at least a first video stream. Thereafter, an array is displayed which comprises grid cells in which at least a portion of the chip images is presented, at least a portion of the video chips is presented, or a portion of the chip images and a portion of the video chips are presented. Each chip image comprises a panned-only view, a zoomed-only view, or a panned-and-zoomed view of the first image including a visual representation of at least one first object of a particular type. Each of the video chips comprises a segment of the first video stream which include a visual representation of at least one second object of the particular type.

主权项

1. A method for efficient spatial feature data analysis, comprising:
receiving, by a computing device, a user input for selecting a feature contained in a geographical area of interest visually represented within a first image via a user-software interaction directly with the first image displayed in a display area of an application window; in response to the user-software interaction, simultaneously and dynamically generating, by the computing device, (1) a plurality of chip images using image data defining said first image and (2) a plurality of video chips using video data defining at least a first video stream, where
the feature selected by the user input and a feature contained in at least one said chip image or video chip comprise multi-dimensional representations of different objects which have at least one attribute in common; generating, by said computing device, at least one array comprising (1) a plurality of grid cells in which at least a portion of said plurality of chip images is presented, (2) a portion of said plurality of video chips is presented, or (3) portions of both of said plurality of chip images and said plurality of video chips are presented; and displaying, by said computing device, said array in a Graphical User Interface (“GUI”) window thereof; wherein each of said plurality of chip images comprises at least one of a panned-only view, a zoomed-only view, and a panned-and-zoomed view of said first image including a first visual representation of at least one first object of a particular type; and wherein each of said plurality of video chips comprises a segment of said first video stream which comprises a second visual representation of at least one second object of said particular type.
