Object Based Image Analysis Workshop (Theory + Vendor Presentations)

Monday, 28 September 2009 09:00 - 16:30, The University of Adelaide

Object-oriented approaches to satellite sensor image analysis have become increasingly popular with the growing availability of high-resolution satellite imagery, including data from the IKONOS, QuickBird, and GeoEye sensors. The workshop will explore the differences between classification and segmentation, what information can be extracted from image segments and how these improve classification results, as well as exploring multi-resolution object analysis.

The afternoon session will consist of presentations by representatives of vendors of object oriented image analysis software including Definiens, ENVI FX and ERDAS. The presentation will be of a technical nature and will outline case studies and recent developments from each of the of the vendors.
