Hello Petroleum Community,

Please take a moment to view the webinar, "Leveraging Imagery and AI for Greater Operational Efficiency," that took place on September 5, 2024. You can also find and share the recording here:  Webinar Recording

(view in My Videos)

In this webinar, we explored the imagery and remote sensing capabilities of ArcGIS. We covered free data sources, high-volume image management, advanced analytics, and visualization. Additionally, we shared about best practices for image data management, deep learning models, and enhancing field asset intelligence with oriented imagery.

For further information, please contact Sam Rosario at srosario@esri.com, Chris Sheil at csheil@esri.com, or Scott Noulis at snoulis@esri.com.

Questions and Answers from Webinar

  • What version of enterprise are these tools available in? Do we need specific licensing to access the different tools?
    • The tools shown for GeoAI and image analysis would require Image Analyst Extension, run on Enterprise Image Server (configured for Raster Analytics), or ran in ArcGIS Online. The Oriented Imagery toolset is now supported natively in ArcGIS Professional starting at version 3.3.
  • For change detection for a monitoring use case what is the typical recommended refresh interval for imagery?
    • This is really use-case dependent. The imagery specifications (eg. capture date, resolution, or even spectral information) would depend on what you are trying to analyze for change. For example, are you analyzing your geographic area of interest once a year? seasonally? based on a regulatory need?
  • Is there anything under Living Atlas around "classifying buildings" for example for HCA analysis for pipelines.
    • There is not currently a pre-trained model for classifying HCA specifically, however there could be information within Business Analyst, demographic data, or other third party data, that could be used to geo-enrich the building polygons that you identify with the Building Detection deep learning model available on Esri's Living Atlas.
  • Can you tell me what was just shown on the Living Atlas that showed the tank facilities? And is it available to the public? If so, how often is it updated?
  • What is the best way to view thousands of miles of high-res elevation data in Enterprise portal without having to mosaic and publish hundreds of referenced imagery services to our image server?
    • Consuming a raster elevation dataset is definitely most efficient from a hosted Image Service. Esri provides access to Elevation services through our Living Atlas as well. If you are interested in serving out your own elevation datasets then utilizing a Mosaic Dataset is still the best way to do so. It provides a structured data model, rendering, rules, and so on. If you find that you wish to have your Mosaic Dataset workflow and the additional of new raster files automatically added, please reach out to your Account Manager and we would be happy to explore an automated workflow through scripting.
  • Can I use Georadar data in ArcPro to detect buried lines?
    • ArcGIS does support Radar data, if you are having issues in working with Radar data and would like some support please reach out to your Account Manager and we would be happy to connect our Imagery and Remote Sensing team to assist.
  • At what version of ArcGIS Pro are these tools available?
    • The tools shown for GeoAI and image analysis would require Image Analyst Extension, run on Enterprise Image Server (configured for Raster Analytics), or ran in ArcGIS Online. The Oriented Imagery toolset is now supported natively in ArcGIS Professional starting at version 3.3.
  • How much time does it take to run these tools and create the final 3D dataset in the digital twin with attributes? What would sustainment look like from a time commitment perspective?
    • Esri has multiple solutions for photogrammetry and deriving 3D mesh, 3D point cloud, and orthomosaics from imagery. The time to process (and product license needed) would depend on the type of imagery (resolution, geographic extent, platform, etc.). Likewise, processing timelines would vary on the machine or environment that you are processing on.
  • Hello, that was a nice presentation. I just wanted to ask, how we can load the images or video in the Oriental imagery process.
  • How we can add the multiple year images of the same location to mosaic to a single set of mosaic data.
  • Why is the living atlas tab in Enterprise portal so limited vs the website you are showing?
  • We have a 360 degree camera mount on a vehicle and capture a series of images.  I can add the individual images in Pro, but we would like to be able to click in an open image and automatically open the next/previous image (similar to streetview in google earth).  Is it possible to set that up, and if so, how?
  • Can you provide some best practices as well as challenges on using Living Atlas content on AGOL vs Enterprise?
    • If you are having technical challenges in connecting to Living Atlas content please reach out to your Account Manager and we can help look at the issue. If discussing general best practices, you should see value in connecting to Living Atlas content layers within Enterprise vs. physically moving data. Always be sure to understand the content you want to review, check the data sources, and review metadata. There are very detailed descriptions of content layers within the Living Atlas.
  • What kind of storage/architecture is required for oriented imagery?
  • Was the 3D tank app built in experience builder? or is this something that was build custom/out of the box?
    • This was built in Experience builder with out of the box tools. Configuration took place for visualization.
  • My current primary interest in the Living Atlas is the library of pre-trained deep learning models.  Is there a way to know what additional pre-trained learning models will be added to the Atlas and the timeline for those additions?  Thanks.
    • We do not have a roadmap for pre-trained deep learning models, but if you are interested in a specific model and would like to connect with us we would be happy to assist.
  • How does change detection work with different types of data - different number of bands, different wavelengths for bands?
    • Change detection in ArcGIS involves comparing different datasets to identify and visualize changes that have occurred over time. This can be done on a variety of datasets, parameters, spectral combinations, and so on. This can include but is not limited to satellite imagery, aerial imagery, LiDAR, vector data, Land Use Land Cover, or other derived datasets. extracted features, spectral information, elevation data, or other derived datasets.
