Patent Searching and Data


Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MANIPULATING DATA HAVING SPATIAL COORDINATES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/153624
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Systems and methods are provided for extracting various features from data having spatial coordinates. The systems and methods may identify and extract data points from a point cloud, where the data points are considered to be part of the ground surface, a building, or a wire (e.g. power lines). Systems and methods are also provided for enhancing a point cloud using external data (e.g. images and other point clouds), and for tracking a moving object by comparing images with a point cloud. An objects database is also provided which can be used to scale point clouds to be of similar size. The objects database can also be used to search for certain objects in a point cloud, as well as recognize unidentified objects in a point cloud.
