Abstract:
Systems and methods for presenting information in response to a user interaction with a geographic image at a point of query in a geographic information system are provided. A user can request information at point of query in the geographic image. Responsive to the user request, the geographic information system can search for and obtain information associated with the request. As part of the logic used to return information responsive to a request at a point of query, a zone of influence can be defined for one or more features depicted in the image. The zone of influence can be defined by a pixel threshold in a pixel space associated with the geographic image. The pixel threshold can be constant across a plurality of zoom levels of the geographic image.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for tasking an image acquisition system are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining data descriptive of a plurality of images associated with a geographic area. The method includes analyzing at least a subset of the plurality of images to determine an occurrence of one or more changes associated with the geographic area. The method includes determining a level of change associated with the geographic area based, at least in part, on the occurrence of the one or more changes associated with the geographic area. The method includes providing a control command to an image acquisition system to adjust an acquisition of imagery data associated with the geographic area based, at least in part, on the level of change.

Abstract:
Systems and methods for updating a map interface are provided. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining data descriptive of a map tile of a map interface that is displayable on a display device. The map tile presents imagery associated with at least a portion of a geographic area. The method includes obtaining data descriptive of an image depicting at least the portion of the geographic area. The image is acquired by an image acquisition system. The method includes analyzing the data descriptive of the map tile and the data descriptive of the image to determine an occurrence of a change associated with the geographic area. The method includes updating the map interface to reflect the change associated with the geographic area based at least in part on the occurrence of the change associated with the geographic area.
