"Timing comparisons indicate that Feature Analyst reduces extraction time by a factor of 5 to 10 over small areas. By using Feature Analyst to develop automated classification models over a small training set and extrapolating to larger areas, extraction times could be reduced by several orders of magnitude over large areas."

Mike O'Brien, National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) STAR Program Manager, ASPRS International Conference 2003

"Because of the addition of the Feature Modeler and Feature Model Library to the Feature Analyst toolset, we can now deploy novice AFE technicians on large, complex extraction projects with confidence knowing that expertly designed extraction models are being used to create refined and accurate results. These models can also be used to train our technicians and analysts on proper extraction workflow and solution-specific AFE modeling."

Jason San Souci, NCDC Feature Analyst Power User and Certified Trainer

“Feature Analyst is recognized worldwide as a cutting-edge technology for lowering the labor costs of geospatial data production processes. We feel our customer base will benefit tremendously with the addition of Feature Analyst’s capabilities for SOCET SET.”

Dan London, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, BAE Systems Geospatial eXploitation Products (GXP)

"Feature Analyst has literally allowed me to shrink my workload by one third."

Jim Waller, GIS Coordinator, Big Horn County, Wyoming

"Feature Analyst is a powerful leading-edge tool we are using for an abundance of feature extraction and image classification applications. Our students have found Feature Analyst both easy to learn and use."

Dr. Douglas A. Stow, NASA ARC Principal Investigator and Professor of Geography at San Diego State University

“Feature Analyst provides a very valuable solution for our users."

Rich Turner, Product Manager, ArcGIS

"The software does very detailed and accurate work of separating forest from non-forest areas as well as separating conifer from hardwood tree species."

Dave Vanderzanden and Mike Morrison, USDA Forest Service

“Feature Analyst has allowed NCDC to accurately delineate the crowns of target vegetation to get a precise measurement of crown width, which can be used to estimate stem size, which can be used to estimate volume, which can then be used to estimate biomass. With several states moving towards mandatory renewable energy requirements, this product has remarkable value in the commercial energy market. Thanks for giving us a great tool!”

Jason San Souci, Native Communities Development Corp.

"Using this software, the operator can map features incredibly fast, from satellite imagery, aerial photography, or other images."

Rj Zimmer, GIS City Manager, City of Helena-Lewis & Clark County, Montana
