Systems and methods for efficient spatial feature analysis

Abstract

Systems (100) and methods (300) for efficient spatial feature data analysis. The methods involve simultaneously generating two or more chip images (904) using image data defining a first image (508); concurrently displaying an array (906) comprising all or a portion of the chip images in a plug-in window (702); and displaying in the plug-in window information relating to an attribute (a1, a2) of a feature (A5) contained in a selected one of the displayed chip images (1002). The chip images are generated in response to a user selection of a feature (A1) contained in at least a portion of the first image displayed in an application window (504). Each of the chip images comprises a panned view, a zoomed view, or a panned-and-zoomed view of the first image including one or more features of a user-selected feature class.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
