URBAN PLANNING & SMART CITIES

Transforming cities through advanced geospatial analysis.

Urban planners are confronted with a daunting task: extracting valuable insights from vast geospatial data to make well-informed decisions. However, the traditional methods of data analysis and manual interpretation prove to be time-consuming and ineffective, impeding the efficient resolution of crucial challenges such as infrastructure management, environmental sustainability, and disaster preparedness.

Enter Deep Block, an AI-powered geospatial analysis platform meticulously crafted to overcome these obstacles. By harnessing state-of-the-art computer vision technology, Deep Block empowers urban planners and decision-makers to dedicate their attention to meticulous analysis and strategic decision-making, all while automating the laborious tasks of data processing and interpretation.

Drone Imagery

Drones have emerged as a valuable asset in urban planning, providing targeted studies and reconnaissance. While their range is relatively limited compared to planes, drones offer flexibility and precision in capturing imagery for specific areas of interest.

USE CASES

Unlocking data blind spots.

Deep Block's advanced computer vision algorithms revolutionize the field of urban planning and smart cities by harnessing the power of geospatial data. Our platform empowers urban planners to efficiently process and analyze large volumes of data, enabling them to make informed decisions and drive sustainable urban development.

Land Use and Zoning Analysis_Deep Block-web


Land Use and Zoning Analysis

Identify and classify different land use categories, such as residential, commercial, industrial, and recreational areas through time. This information aids in effective urban development planning, optimizing land utilization, and detecting illegal constructions.

Disaster Preparedness and Response_Deep Block-min


Disaster Preparedness and Response

Analyze real-time data from various sources, including drone imagery and CCTV footage, to aid in emergency response planning and post-disaster damage assessment. This enables proactive measures, efficient resource allocation, and effective recovery strategies for cities and their residents.

Environmental Conservation_Deep Block-min


Environmental Conservation

Detect and track changes in vegetation, identify potential areas of environmental concern, and support initiatives related to urban greening and sustainable development. These insights contribute to the creation of environmentally friendly and livable cities.

APPLICATIONS

Unleash the Geospatial Toolbox.

Deep Block supports a growing range of applications and lets you train your AI on multiple data sources. 

Image Segmentation_Urban Planning_Deep Block-min


Image Segmentation

Assign pixel-level labels to different regions within an image. Applied to geospatial data, it can help identify buildings, land-use patterns, vegetation cover, or even changes over time. This level of granularity enables cities to monitor and analyze spatial dynamics, supporting environmental assessments, infrastructure planning, and urban growth modeling.

Object Detection_Urban Planning_Deep Block-min


Object Detection

Recognize objects and precisely locate them within the geospatial context. By detecting and delineating individual objects, such as vehicles, trees, or infrastructure elements, cities can gain insights into spatial distribution patterns and make informed decisions accordingly.

Change Detection_Urban Planning_Deep Block-min


Change Detection

Discover and identify discrepancies in ground objects using two (bi-temporal) or more (multi-temporal) images taken by the same type of sensor, at the same geographical location. It can indicate the addition or removal of buildings which is one of the main uses for urban and public space management, cadastral map update, and illegal constructions detection.

Projects

What We Did

Over the years, we have been dedicated to creating innovative machine vision projects that effectively analyze remote sensing images for customers across the globe. Deep Block's widespread user base is a testament to our commitment to constantly enhance our services and technology.


Detection of illegal land use in Seoul

Seoul City utilized revolutionary AI change detection technology to uncover illegal construction activities. By analyzing aerial photographs with Deep Block, we triumphed in achieving the highest benchmark score in all of Korea.


Detection of changes in Khalifa City

During our meeting with the Abu Dhabi government, we presented them with a groundbreaking solution on how to construct an advanced AI model utilizing Deep Block. This innovative model enables them to effortlessly identify alterations in Google Earth satellite images, all without the need for any coding expertise.


Korean government

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport of the Republic of Korea lacked the ability to analyze their own massive satellite images, each exceeding 10 GB in size, using advanced machine learning technology. Seeking assistance, they approached us with the question of whether we could handle the analysis of even larger images. Rest assured, we have the expertise to swiftly process these ultra-high volume satellite images.
