eCognition is a comprehensive image analysis platform for multi-dimensional image analysis. It contains all the client and server software needed to extract intelligence from any digital image in a fully automated or semi-automated way.
The client software is role-based and supports the needs and skills of different users in an organization. The server software, known as the eCognition Server, is a processing environment that allows the batch processing of jobs and is hugely scalable, capable of handling tens, hundreds or many thousands of images in a single job.
eCognition Developer client software is not part of the Linux installation set, and requires Windows platforms. For details refer to the Installation Guide for Windows.
eCognition Developer 9.5 is a powerful and completely integrated environment designed for image analysis specialists to develop, test and package new image analysis applications. It can be used as a standalone tool or in combination with the eCognition Server.
eCognition Developer 9.5 incorporates the latest generation of Cognition Network Technology®, enabling the creation of new solutions for multidimensional image analysis applications. It incorporates a new programming paradigm, high-performance analysis for complex multidimensional data and sophisticated viewing, visualization and registration capabilities.
Architect is an intuitive end-user tool used to configure and execute image analysis applications. It provides support for fully automated or semi-automated workflows and guides users through the application they are running.Architect incorporates all the required tools for users to import, view and visualize multidimensional images and results.
The eCognition Server provides a processing environment for the batch execution of image analysis using a high-performance grid computing environment. The eCognition Server includes specific components designed to meet the needs of the multidimensional image analysis required for geo-spatial analysis. Supported connectors and drivers are described in a separate document, Supported Connectors and File Drivers.
The Administration Console provides system administrators with a web-based interface that simplifies the management of the eCognition Server environment.
Data Management offers an open, enterprise-ready and cost-effective solution for managing the huge volume of data generated by image analysis projects. The data is managed using standard relational database technologies and can be used with all Trimble products.
The eCognition Software Development Kit (SDK) enables the integration of the eCognition products within any business process using any data source or target, and allows the core analysis capabilities of the eCognition Server to be extended.
