Abstract

Claims (15)

1. A system for enhanced geospatial modeling using a spectral data analytic cube classifier and normalized multispectral raster data, comprising:

a geospatial modeling server computer comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:

analyze and process input imagery, the processing comprising at least the operations of image normalization using atmospheric compensation through radiometric balancing, and feature extraction using a spectral data analytic cube classifier;

provide the normalized image data to other components of the system;

a database computer comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:

store data received from other components of the system and provide the data for future review as needed;

a data import/export server computer comprising at least a processor, a memory, and a plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory and operating on the processor, wherein the programming instructions, when operating on the processor, cause the processor to:

provide data from other components of the system for review or interaction by a human user or external hardware or software devices; and

receive data from a human user or external software or hardware devices and provide the data to other components of the system.

2. A method for geospatial modeling using raster data, comprising the steps of:

receiving, at a geospatial analysis server, a plurality of input image data;

performing image processing on the input image data, the processing comprising at least the operations of image normalization using atmospheric compensation through radiometric balancing, and feature extraction comprising calculating raw factor data based at least in part on at least a portion of the input image data;

building a plurality of probability density functions based at least in part on at least a portion of the raw factor data;

building a plurality of assessment layers based at least in part on at least a portion of the probability density functions; and

building a final assessment based at least in part on at least a portion of the assessment layers.
