Abstract
Provided is an apparatus and method for providing an application service using a satellite image. An application service providing apparatus using a satellite image may include a satellite image information acquirer configured to acquire a satellite image; an object extractor configured to analyze the satellite image, to extract an object from the satellite image, and to generate an object image corresponding to the object; a storage configured to store the satellite image and the object image; and a service processing configured to process a service based on at least one of the satellite image and the object image.
Claims16
An apparatus for providing an application service using a satellite image, the apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to
- acquire a satellite image;
- analyze the satellite image;
- extract an object from the satellite image;
- and
- generate an object image corresponding to the object;
- and
- a storage configured to store the satellite image and the object image,
- wherein the processor is further configured to process a service based on at least one of the satellite image and the object image,
- wherein the service comprises at least one of:
- a service of providing an object image corresponding to a target of interest;
- a service of providing a result of analyzing an object corresponding to the target of interest;
- a service of providing additional information corresponding to an area corresponding to a region of interest or the object corresponding to the target of interest;
- and
- a service of providing a result of analyzing a difference between a plurality of satellite images captured at different times or a result of performing a time series analysis on a difference between a plurality of object images acquired from the plurality of satellite images,
- wherein the processor is further configured to provide, to a user terminal, a detection accuracy including a degree of matching between the extracted object and the target of interest,
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is a field or a farm, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the field or the farm, provide the additional information including an area or cultivated products, of the field or the farm,
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is an apartment complex or a building, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the apartment complex or the building, provide the additional information including at least one of a year of starting occupancy, a number of occupant houses, a number of occupants, a selling price, and a number of parking vehicles, of the apartment complex or the building,
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is a park, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the park, provide the additional information including at least one of an area of the park, opening hours, an average number of visitors, a number of visitors per time zone, and facilities, of the park,
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is a green field, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the green field, provide the additional information including an area or land use of the green field,
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is a road, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the road, provide the additional information including at least one of a length, a direction, a year of opening, a number of floating vehicles, parking availability, and a number of vehicles used by time of day, of the road, and
- wherein the processor is further configured to
- determine whether the extracted object is a river, and
- when it is determined that the extracted object is the river, provide the additional information including at least one of a length, a width, a flowrate, a coefficient of river regime, and a depth, of the river.
A method of providing an application service using a satellite image, the method comprising:
- acquiring a satellite image;
- analyzing the satellite image, extracting an object from the satellite image, and generating an object image corresponding to the object;
- storing the satellite image and the object image;
- and
- providing a service based on at least one of the satellite image and the object image,
- wherein the providing of the service comprises at least one of:
- providing an object image corresponding to a target of interest;
- providing a result of analyzing an object corresponding to the target of interest;
- providing additional information corresponding to an area corresponding to a region of interest or the object corresponding to the target of interest;
- providing a result of analyzing a difference between a plurality of satellite images captured at different times or a result of performing a time series analysis on a difference between a plurality of object images acquired from the plurality of satellite images;
- providing, to a user terminal, a detection accuracy including a degree of matching between the extracted object and the target of interest;
- determining whether the extracted object is a field or a farm, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the field or the farm, providing the additional information including an area or cultivated products, of the field or the farm;
- determining whether the extracted object is an apartment complex or a building, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the apartment complex or the building, providing the additional information including at least one of a year of starting occupancy, a number of occupant houses, a number of occupants, a selling price, and a number of parking vehicles, of the apartment complex or the building;
- determining whether the extracted object is a park, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the park, providing the additional information including at least one of an area of the park, opening hours, an average number of visitors, a number of visitors per time zone, and facilities, of the park;
- determining whether the extracted object is a green field, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the green field, providing the additional information including an area or land use of the green field;
- determining whether the extracted object is a road, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the road, providing the additional information including at least one of a length, a direction, a year of opening, a number of floating vehicles, parking availability, and a number of vehicles used by time of day, of the road;
- and
- determining whether the extracted object is a river, and when it is determined that the extracted object is the river, providing the additional information including at least one of a length, a width, a flowrate, a coefficient of river regime, and a depth, of the river.
