image analysis

Visual data processing

Image analysis is the extraction of meaningful information from visual data—photographs, satellite imagery, medical scans, video frames.

The term appears most often in technical contexts: computers performing image analysis to detect tumors, identify faces, or classify objects.

The software uses image analysis to flag suspicious activity in surveillance footage.
