Imagery-Information Extraction (205)

Flow chart showing that image data, land-use data, 3-D geography data, and other data all point to data fusion. Data fusion points to create site model. Create site model points to either develop tools for routine analysis or provide user-friendly representation.

Problem: Need methods & tools to characterize inaccessible cultural & environmental sites using complementary data sets

Project Activity Scope (from Technical Overview Chart): Interaction Mechanisms through Measurement & Analysis System Applications

PNNL Solution:

  • Developed data fusion methods to establish a comprehensive "picture" of cultural site using available data
  • Developed method to create site "models" based on integrated data
  • Presented integrated information in user-friendly format to facilitate data understanding & utilization

Capabilities Employed to Meet Client Needs: Photogrammetry, computer aided design software for object representation, visual text analysis.
