Image Analysis for ArcGIS

Image Processing for the ArcGIS Environment
Image Analysis™ for ArcGIS is the all-in-one solution for preparing, referencing, measuring and analyzing imagery from airborne and satellite sensors. Fully integrated with ArcGIS, it enables you to extract up-to-date information from imagery directly into a geodatabase, dramatically increasing accuracy and productivity. Processing imagery into reliable GIS data, Image Analysis for ArcGIS helps you understand the interrelated behavior of features on the earth’s surface.

Increase the Accuracy of Your GIS
Allowing end-to-end processing in one software application, Image Analysis for ArcGIS eliminates numerous error-prone conversion routines. Considerably reducing risks of output data corruption, Image Analysis for ArcGIS increases the accuracy of the GIS data extracted from imagery. Further analysis tasks such as 3D stereo feature collection or terrain extraction are secured and facilitated.

Gain productivity Thanks to Full ArcGIS Integration
Image Analysis for ArcGIS saves you time when collecting reliable geographic content for your GIS. The integration with the ESRI ArcGIS product line, including ArcView, ArcEditor and ArcInfo, allows GIS professionals to streamline their workflow. Based on the ArcGIS architecture, Image Analysis for ArcGIS is intuitive and easy-to-learn.

Extensive Suite of Image Processing Tools
With more than 60 image formats supported, Image Analysis for ArcGIS offers multiple image processing tools, including image orientation and orthorectification, and mosaicking of overlapping images. Analysis capabilities allow determining the type of land cover, differentiating between different types of vegetation and detecting information not visible to the eye in multiple image layers. Image Analysis for ArcGIS also converts raster data to vector data and vice-versa.
