Abstract
A method for detecting changes in geospatial imagery. An imaging device is operated to take two images of a single location. The two images are received at processor, which normalizes the visible band and near infrared band of the two images. The two images are registered. Corresponding pixels of the two images are divided into a first group with slope and a second group without slope. Slope groupings are compared to determine which corresponding pixels have a probability of change greater than a predetermined threshold. Vector polygons are created based on the comparing slope groupings, to indicate areas of change in the two images. The areas of change in the two images are displayed on a display device.
