Patent number: 10061474Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a user interface for searching, browsing, and ordering overhead (e.g. aircraft or satellite) imagery are provided. The user interface provides a map and search bar for searching and browsing images. Images may be presented to a user based on a selected and/or displayed geographic region of interest. Browsing to a different geographic region of interest may dynamically and automatically update the images presented. The user interface allows the user to select an image for viewing and/or purchase. Selection of an image overlays the image on the map, aligned with the geographic region which the image captures. Closing the selected image re-centers and re-zooms to the original display. Presented images can be filtered based on several criteria. Images can include still images and/or videos.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 2013Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Planet Labs, Inc.Inventors: Greg Bertoldo, Carlos Cervantes, Richard J. Cirminello, Jr., James Long, Julian Mann, Daniel Berkenstock, Oliver Guinan, Ching-Yu Hu, Adam Wegel, Christopher Kelley

Patent number: 9105128Abstract: Described are systems, methods, computer programs, and user interfaces for image location, acquisition, analysis, and data correlation that uses human-in-the-loop processing, Human Intelligence Tasks (HIT), and/or or automated image processing. Results obtained using image analysis are correlated to non-spatial information useful for commerce and trade. For example, images of regions of interest of the earth are used to count items (e.g., cars in a store parking lot to predict store revenues), detect events (e.g., unloading of a container ship, or evaluating the completion of a construction project), or quantify items (e.g., the water level in a reservoir, the area of a farming plot).Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2011Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: Skybox Imaging, Inc.Inventors: M. Dirk Robinson, Mark Robertson, Hadar Isaac, Oliver Guinan, Thomas Joseph Melendez, Daniel Berkenstock, Julian Mann
