Abstract
An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for assessing geospatial aerial images for image processing. In one example, the apparatus receives a plurality of geospatial aerial images, where each of the plurality of geospatial aerial image data represents a zone within a map. The apparatus selects a bounding zone within the map for image processing and, in response to the bounding zone including a subset of the plurality of geospatial aerial images, the apparatus accepts or rejects the subset for the image processing based on one or more attributes of the subset. The one or more attributes is a resolution of each of the subset, an amount of area within the bounding zone covered by the subset, a clarity of each of the subset, an amount of gap or overlap between the subset, or a combination thereof.
