Abstract
Disclosed is a method and system for processing images from an aerial imaging device. The method includes receiving a first image of a geographical area having a first resolution. The method transmits the first image to a machine learning model to identify an area of interest containing an object of interest. The method receives a second image of the geographical area having a second resolution higher than the first resolution. The method transmits the second image to the machine learning model to determine a likelihood that the area of interest contains the object of interest. The method trains the machine learning model to filter out features corresponding to the area of interest in images having the first resolution if the likelihood is below a threshold. The method transmits a visual representation of the object of interest to a user device if the likelihood exceeds the threshold.
