A system is for identifying a selected target in a geographic model. The system includes a database configured to store electronically a geographic model, different target model types with respective model-type metadata associated therewith, and different unique targets with unique target metadata associated therewith. A processor cooperates with the database and determines a proposed type-match between a selected target, with selected target metadata associated therewith, and one of the plurality of different target model types stored in the database based upon the selected target metadata and the model-type metadata. The processor also generates updated selected target metadata based upon confirmation of the proposed type-match, and determines a proposed unique target-match between the selected target and one of the different unique targets based upon confirmation of the proposed type-match and based upon the updated selected target metadata and the unique target metadata.

System for identifying a selected target in a geographic model and associated methods

A geospatial modeling system includes a display, a geospatial database, and a processor. The processor generates a model based upon a single optical image and a digital elevation model (DEM), and without registration of multiple optical images. The processor also generates time-lapsed models based upon single time-lapsed optical images and the DEM, and without registration of multiple time-lapsed optical images. Regions of interest are user selected from the time-lapsed models, and are displayed along with the model.
