[IP] Image processing and analysis

Image processing and analysis – Image processing and analysis describes the entire collection of tasks and employed methods and technologies along the information production workflow. They transform data contained in remote sensing images to information products, e.g. in form of digital maps and reports, for users in various application domains to take informed decisions.
