Abstract
Systems and methods for large-scale geospatial mosaic generation with image processing in a cloud computing environment. The approaches described herein specifically leverage scalable cloud computing features to facilitate highly parallel, granular image processing. Front-end image processing techniques allow for generation of a user interface that may provide automated material selection with human operator refinement. The user interface may be a web-based design that provides browse version images at lower resolutions to improve performance of the user interface and generating mosaic recipe. In turn, the mosaic recipe may be provided to back-end image processing that coordinates strip-level jobs and tile-level jobs and highly parallel fashion scalable cloud computing nodes. In turn, very large-scale mosaic images may be generated from geospatial images in computationally and cost-effective manner.
