GEOSPATIAL & AERIAL MAPPING

Structured Ground Truth for Aerial and Geospatial Vision.

Aerial and satellite imagery require annotation rules that respect scale, spatial context, terrain, land use, and image resolution. Josisoft builds geospatial annotation workflows around your map layers, class taxonomy, coordinate context, imagery source, and QA criteria so every feature is labeled consistently across tiles, regions, and large-area datasets.

SPATIAL ANNOTATION OPERATIONS

Core Geospatial Annotation Capabilities

Aerial imagery with building perimeter and rooftop geometry outlines

Building Footprint & Rooftop Extraction

Polygonal extraction of building perimeters, structural foundations, rooftop planes, and superstructures from high-resolution satellite, aerial orthophoto, and drone imagery.

Aerial map with topology-correct cadastral parcel boundaries

Cadastral & Land Parcel Mapping

Legal property and tax parcel boundary digitization with strict topological enforcement: shared-edge snapping, zero-gap tolerances, and non-overlap boundary validation.

Aerial road network with connected centerline and intersection vectors

Road Network & Linear Vectorization

Extraction of road centerlines, multi-lane dividers, intersections, railways, pipelines, and bridge corridors structured as topologically connected routable network graphs.

Regional satellite imagery with land-use and land-cover segmentation

Land-Use & Land-Cover (LULC) Mapping

Dense, multi-tier semantic categorization of regional land cover across standardized classification schemes, mapping urban settlements, industrial zones, wetlands, barren terrain, and water bodies.

Aerial aircraft, vehicles, containers, and tanks with oriented bounding boxes

Aerial Oriented Bounding Box (OBB) Detection

Rotated bounding box annotation (θ-angle alignment) for arbitrary-heading overhead targets, including maritime vessels, aircraft, ground vehicles, shipping containers, and storage tanks.

Drone agricultural survey with field, crop-row, weed, and soil-gap outlines

Precision Agriculture & Crop Row Mapping

Vector delineation of farm boundaries, individual crop rows, planting zones, weed infestations, and bare-soil gaps across multi-spectral and RGB drone surveys.

Aerial forest canopy with individual tree-crown instance boundaries

Forestry & Individual Tree Crown (ITC) Delineation

Instance segmentation of individual tree crowns, canopy cover density, species classification, and biomass assessment for carbon credit verification and wildfire fuel modeling.

Aligned before-and-after satellite images showing new construction

Bi-Temporal Satellite Change Detection

Pairwise time-series annotation across multi-date imagery (T1 vs. T2) to detect, quantify, and categorize urban development, unauthorized construction, deforestation, and infrastructure expansion.

Post-disaster aerial scene with graded building damage outlines

Disaster Impact & Damage Scoring

Post-catastrophe assessment annotating affected infrastructure and grading structural damage severity across standardized scales (e.g., xBD: undamaged, minor, major, destroyed) for emergency response and insurance underwriting.

Aerial transmission corridor with clearance and vegetation encroachment boundaries

Utility Right-of-Way (ROW) Encroachment

Asset extraction and clearance-zone measurement for high-voltage transmission lines, utility poles, pipeline right-of-ways, and hazardous vegetation encroachment corridors.

Aerial solar, wind, substation, and maintenance-route asset mapping

Renewable Energy Asset Mapping

Delineation of solar photovoltaic (PV) arrays, individual panel modules, commercial rooftop installations, wind turbine coordinates, substations, and maintenance access routes.

Satellite water scene with river, shoreline, canal, and flood boundaries

Hydrography & Shoreline Extraction

Extraction of natural and artificial water boundaries, including dynamic tidal shorelines, river centerlines, canal networks, reservoir perimeters, and flood inundation zones.

SAR coastal imagery with vessel, oil-spill, and flood annotations

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Annotation

Feature extraction and target detection across single- and multi-polarized SAR imagery, isolating maritime dark vessels, oil spills, surface subsidence, and flood extents through cloud cover and night conditions.

Photogrammetric urban scene with LOD1 and LOD2 building geometry

3D Building Vectorization (LOD1 / LOD2)

Extraction of 3D geometric building volumes from stereo satellite pairs and aerial photogrammetry, generating LOD1 block extrusions and LOD2 pitched roof geometries for urban digital twins.

FLEXIBLE DELIVERY

Tooling & Platform-Agnostic Execution

01

Client-Hosted Platforms

Our geospatial annotation teams can work inside client-approved labeling and mapping environments supporting polygons, segmentation, raster imagery, vector layers, and spatial review workflows, including tools such as CVAT, Label Studio, SuperAnnotate, Kili Technology, QGIS-based workflows, or other approved systems.

DEPLOYED CONTEXT

Real-World Geospatial Applications

FIELD / CROP / CANOPY

Agriculture & Crop Intelligence

Field boundaries, crop segmentation, canopy mapping, weed detection, irrigation zones, soil regions, and land-condition labeling for agricultural imagery and remote-sensing datasets.

BUILDING / ROAD / PARCEL

Urban Planning & Smart Cities

Building footprints, roads, parcels, land use, infrastructure, construction areas, and urban features for mapping, planning, and city-scale computer vision datasets.

ASSET / CORRIDOR / GRID

Energy, Utilities & Infrastructure

Annotate solar panels, transmission corridors, pipelines, utility assets, access roads, substations, and surrounding land features from aerial or satellite imagery.

WATER / DAMAGE / LAND

Environmental & Disaster Mapping

Identify vegetation, water bodies, flood extent, damaged structures, shoreline changes, burn areas, or client-defined environmental features in controlled remote-sensing workflows.

CONTROLLED OPERATIONS

Security, Compliance & Workforce Governance

01

Mandatory Bilateral NDAs

Every annotator, QA reviewer, and project manager signs an NDA before accessing project assets.

02

Security & Clean-Room Training

Personnel are trained on data confidentiality: strict restrictions on screen sharing, zero tolerance for screen recording or screenshots, and supervised session management.

03

Governed Physical Delivery Hub

On-premise operations at our central Durgapur facility enforce controlled local networks, restricted USB and removable media ports, and supervised work environments.

04

Isolated Hybrid Pods

Each client is assigned a dedicated team working in siloed environments, preventing cross-project data contamination and maintaining domain context.

START A PROJECT

Start With a Calibrated Geospatial Pilot.

Share a representative imagery set, class taxonomy, map layers, boundary rules, and QA requirements with our delivery team. We will calibrate the spatial guidelines, annotate a controlled pilot area, review geometry and cross-tile edge cases, and return the sample for acceptance before production scaling.
