An open-source object-based image analysis library for remote sensing.

NickySpatial

An open-source object-based image analysis library for remote sensing.

[!WARNING] This project is under active development and lot of its functionality is still in my head yet to code.

Description

NickySpatial is a Python package that provides object-based image analysis (OBIA) functionality similar to commercial software like eCognition. It allows users to segment geospatial imagery into meaningful objects, calculate statistics, and apply rule-based classification.

Acknowledgments

• Inspired by the functionality of eCognition and other OBIA methodologies
• Built on top of powerful open-source libraries like numpy, rasterio, scikit-image, and GeoPandas

Nicky is my belated dog and I named this package on his memory !
