DataQ has been enhanced with GeoLocation capabilities, enabling the extraction of longitude and latitude data for detected objects. This new feature utilizes homography, a technique that maps 2D image coordinates to real-world geographic coordinates[5].

Key Features

  • Homography Mapping: Pairs four or more points in 2D coordinates with their corresponding world map longitude and latitude.
  • User-Friendly Calibration: DataQ now offers a simple calibration process using mouse-based marker setting.
  • Validation Tools: The user interface includes validation features to ensure accurate mapping.

Applications

This GeoLocation extension opens up new possibilities for:

  • Object Tracking: Monitor the real-world positions of detected objects.
  • Path Analysis: Create flow heatmaps and conduct dwell time analysis.
