Template Matching

Classification using the Template Matching Algorithm

As described in the Reference Book > Template Matching you can apply templates generated with eCognitions Template Matching Editor to your imagery.

Please refer to our template matching videos in the eCognition Knowledge-Base covering a variety of application examples and workflows.

The typical workflow comprises two steps. Template generation using the template editor, and template application using the template matching algorithm.

To generate templates:


Exemplary Tree Template in the Template Editor

To apply your templates:
