Abstract

Exemplary systems and methods perform post-processing operations on computer vision model detections of objects of interest in geospatial imagery to detect and assign attributes to the detected objects of interest. For example, an exemplary post-processing system correlates multiple detections, made by a computer vision model, of an object of interest depicted within a set of images of a geospatial location, determines, based on the correlated detections, an attribute of the object of interest depicted within the set of images of the geospatial location, and selects the attribute for inclusion in a dataset for the object of interest. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

Dependent claims

A method comprising:

correlating, by a post-processing system based on geospatial data associated with a set of images of a geospatial location, multiple detections of an object of interest depicted within the set of images of the geospatial location,
wherein
the set of images includes multiple images captured from different camera viewpoints of the geospatial location, and
the correlating of the multiple detections includes selecting the multiple detections for inclusion in a correlated set of detections from a plurality of possible detections of the object of interest within images captured from the different camera viewpoints of the geospatial location;
determining, by the post-processing system based on the correlated detections, an attribute of the object of interest depicted within the set of images of the geospatial location;
and
selecting, by the post-processing system, the attribute for inclusion in a dataset for the object of interest.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, direct at least one processor of a computing device to:

correlate, based on geospatial data associated with a set of images of a geospatial location, multiple detections of an object of interest depicted within the set of images of the geospatial location,
wherein
the set of images includes multiple images captured from different camera viewpoints of the geospatial location, and
the correlation of the multiple detections includes selecting the multiple detections for inclusion in a correlated set of detections from a plurality of possible detections of the object of interest within images captured from the different camera viewpoints of the geospatial location;
determine, based on the correlated detections, an attribute of the object of interest depicted within the set of images of the geospatial location;
and
select the attribute for inclusion in a dataset for the object of interest.
