That flexibility allows me to solve some really challenging issues like classifying shadows and tree contours. I can't think of another way to accurately classify those objects without eCognition." — Chris Lowe, Director of Imagery Analysis, Land Info Worldwide Mapping The results of all the rule sets were exported into ArcGIS for further customization and quality-control checks. The final deliverables to the telecoms companies were 3D city models complete with vegetation contours, building footprints and the raster classification. With the tailored models, telecom companies have the critical information to analyze line-of-sight potential for 5G sensors and determine the best strategy to optimize their network to give them a competitive edge. In the cutthroat race for network coverage, using eCognition-based 3D land-cover classifications could be a good call. © 2019, Trimble Inc. All rights reserved.
