US 2015/0103341 A1 · METHOD OF IDENTIFICATION FROM A SPATIAL AND SPECTRAL OBJECT MODEL

Abstract

A method of referencing an imaged object includes, among other things, obtaining a series of images, observing key characteristics of the object in each of the series of images, associating the observed key characteristics with the object; and assigning a unique identifier to the object based upon the associated key characteristics. The series of images includes spectral and spatial imagery. Some of the key characteristics are in the spectral imagery and some of the key characteristics are in the spatial imagery.
