SimActive Software Used with AI to Determine Land Use
January 26, 2021 By GISuser
Montreal, Canada, January 26th, 2021 – SimActive Inc., a world-leading developer of photogrammetry software, announces the use of its Correlator3D product in conjunction with machine learning to determine land use in New Zealand. Raw images were pre-processed with a machine learning / artificial intelligence (ML/AI) algorithm developed by Lynker Analytics Ltd. for New Zealand’s lighting conditions, removing shading effects from clouds between image runs.
A coalition of data providers and land use experts was led by Lynker, with imagery processed over 7,400 sites by Gordon Morris, an independent geospatial specialist. The high-quality data were captured by UAV Mapping NZ Ltd. using a non-parametric camera mounted on a Cessna 172 airplane.
