Title: Tyler Jacob Lanes and Onboard Image Geolocation
Introduction
Tyler Jacob Lanes is an inventor based in Broomfield, Colorado. His patent work addresses onboard geolocation of images captured by spacecraft, a capability intended to reduce the time needed to determine where image pixels correspond on Earth.
Latest Patents
Lanes is associated with 1 patent, titled “Onboard Geolocation for Images.” The invention describes geolocating target pixels aboard a spacecraft using timestamped ephemeris and attitude data. It also outlines refining initial geolocation results with a digital construct and using those refinements to improve orbit or attitude filter parameters.
The patent further describes using state information to improve the accuracy of spacecraft attitude or ephemeris data. A ground computing station may determine this information using sources unavailable to the spacecraft, including Ground Control Points or Star Control Points.
Career Highlights
Lanes’s disclosed invention focuses on performing image geolocation onboard a spacecraft rather than relying solely on later ground-based processing. This approach can save time, while refinement methods can help improve the underlying spacecraft data used in geolocation.
Collaborations
Lanes is associated with Vantor Inc. His listed coworkers include Peter Kevin Greene and Edward Calohill Burks III.
Conclusion
Tyler Jacob Lanes’s patent highlights methods for faster spacecraft image geolocation and for refining the data that supports it.
