GeoAI

Turn imagery into answers, detections, and review workflows

Anchored in the NAIPAI pattern: ask aerial, drone, or satellite imagery useful questions, keep confidence and caveats visible, and turn answers into map layers, reports, APIs, or analyst review queues.

NAIPAI imagery chat with confidence and caveats

Proof from NAIPAI: imagery review becomes a question, answer, confidence statement, and next action.

How we keep the first step easy

Three commitments that come standard

01

See the work before you contract

Send 25-50 representative frames. We label them at our cost, return the output and a per-class QA scorecard. You decide whether to scope a pilot after you have seen the labels, not before.

02

Per object or per hour, your call

Bill per labeled object when scope and volume are predictable. Bill per labeling hour when the workflow is exploratory or the schema is still firming up. Both models are on the table from the first scoping call.

03

Your labeling platform, our labor

We operate in CVAT, Labelbox, Roboflow, V7, Scale AI workflows, and most in-house labeling stacks. No platform migration on your end. If you have a custom tool, we learn it on the pilot.

Proof-led positioning

What this page needs to make obvious

GeoAI implementation, imagery chat, remote sensing AI workflow, satellite imagery analysis, and aerial image assistant.

01

Damage and response

Ask what changed, where damage appears likely, and which parcels or assets need field review first.

02

Asset inventory

Count solar panels, tanks, equipment yards, vehicles, utility features, or visible site assets from imagery.

03

Inspection and compliance workflows

Convert repetitive visual review into answer schemas, confidence cues, QA checklists, and exportable notes.

Proof workflow

Input, review, evidence, output.

Modeled on the live Geospatial Solutions demos: the page should show what the buyer sends, what they review, what evidence stays visible, and what they receive.

01

Input

A sample image set and the 3-5 questions your team asks repeatedly.

02

Review surface

We configure model behavior, answer structure, confidence cues, evidence panels, exports, and user path.

03

Evidence

Each answer shows what was found, how confident it is, what needs review, and what data was used.

04

Output

Private demo, embedded app, API endpoint, analyst dashboard, map layer, or client-ready report workflow.

Source and limits

Technical trust should stay visible.

Confidence

Answers should include confidence, caveats, and human review points.

Caveat

Imagery assistants should not hide uncertainty or replace field confirmation where required.

Source

NAIP, Sentinel, Landsat, drone orthomosaics, inspection photos, thermal, multispectral, and customer archives.

QA boundary

Prompt rules, answer schema, confidence language, examples, thresholds, and reviewer workflow.

Export path

Map layer, report, ticket, CSV, GeoJSON, dashboard card, API response, or analyst queue.

Before the first call

What you send · What you get

No vague discovery phase. You bring four or five things, we return a specific plan you can evaluate.

What you send
  • 1A representative sample (50-500 frames) from your imagery source
  • 2Target feature classes and geometry types (point, line, polygon, mask)
  • 3Required output format (GeoJSON, COCO, KITTI, Mapillary, custom)
  • 4Approximate volume, deadline, and accuracy requirement
  • 5Security or NDA constraints (we sign mutual NDA up front)
What you get back
  • 1Calibration set with QA scores returned in 2-4 business days
  • 2Documented edge-case log with our interpretation of every ambiguous class
  • 3Schema-locked production scope with per-frame pricing
  • 4Inter-annotator agreement report (kappa, F1 by class)
  • 5Sample report with feature layer, QA notes, and exports
Class library

83 documented asset classes across 4 categories

Every class has a labeled definition, edge-case examples, and QA rules calibrated against authoritative GIS databases. Add custom classes during pilot and we extend the taxonomy.

Road infrastructure
28 classes
  • Pavement markings
  • Striping (single, double, dashed)
  • Crosswalks (all types)
  • Lane lines (direction-aware)
  • Stop bars + yield triangles
  • Road boundaries + shoulders
  • Surface condition cues (cracking, raveling, rutting)
Asset geolocation
34 classes
  • Traffic signs (R-series, W-series, MUTCD-compliant)
  • Traffic signals + pedestrian heads
  • Utility poles (wood, concrete, steel)
  • Streetlights + cobra heads
  • Guardrails + crash cushions
  • Barriers (Jersey, K-rail, temporary)
  • Manholes + catch basins
  • Fire hydrants + valves
Training data extraction
12 classes
  • Object detection bounding boxes
  • Semantic segmentation masks
  • Instance segmentation
  • Polygon classification
  • False-positive cleanup pass
  • False-negative recovery (hard-negative mining)
GIS delivery formats
9 classes
  • GeoJSON (QGIS / ArcGIS native)
  • COCO (training-ready)
  • KITTI (AV-research convention)
  • Mapillary (street-level standard)
  • OpenStreetMap-ready attributes
  • Custom JSON schemas
  • PostGIS direct write
  • Shapefile (legacy support)
Sample deliverable

A single feature, as you would receive it

Every label is a complete GeoJSON feature with geometry, class, confidence, QA trail, and source provenance. Loads directly into your map, your trainer, or your validator — no conversion script.

  3. 03

    Scale

    Production volume with SLA. 24/7 follow-the-sun capacity, 98%+ QA target, weekly delivery cadence.

  4. 04

    Integrate

    Wire into your training pipeline, deploy custom validation rules, build out edge case mining. Optional embedded team.

Why teams trust us
Questions teams ask before they engage us

Common questions, answered honestly

Do you build the ML models, or just provide training data?

Both. We can deliver labeled datasets alone, or build the model on top — TensorFlow, PyTorch, or your team's framework — and integrate it into your inference pipeline.

What model types do you typically deploy?

Object detection (bounding box and segmentation) for street assets, semantic segmentation for land use and pavement, change detection for satellite imagery, and graph neural networks for routing and network analysis.

Where does the trained model actually run?

Depends on your need. Edge inference (on-device) for field workflows, batch inference on cloud for archive processing, or real-time serving via Cloud Run / Lambda / SageMaker for production pipelines.

How do you handle model drift in production?

Monthly retraining on accumulated data with automatic drift detection — we surface accuracy degradation before it shows up in operations. Ship a model card with every release so you can audit performance over time.
