I’m thinking about adding new features. Which one is more useful and should come next: searching with an image of an object, detecting changes over time using Sentinel-2 data, or detecting object in all Google Street View images within a selected area?
Thanks for the feedback. A dashed square marks the area you select for detection, and once it’s finished, the results will appear. You might want to give it another try because I just tested it on the pickleball courts at 1108 S Harvey Ave, Oklahoma City, OK, 73109, ( https://www.useful-ai-tools.com/tools/satellite-analysis-dem... ) on Ultra High and it detected all of them.
Thanks for trying it out. The detections not all appearing before zooming is because I added a LOD (level of detail) rendering method, so if hundreds of thousands of objects are detected, it won’t crash the system. Only the areas you’re looking at render, and the more you zoom in, the more objects are displayed. It was a pain to set up, but it’s worth it. The notification idea is great, and I’ll add a sound to play when a scan finishes.

Show HN: I built a tool to detect almost any object in images using a prompt

https://www.useful-ai-tools.com/tools/detect-anything/

I built a tool that detects objects in images by describing them in text.Instead of training a detector for a fixed set of classes, you can type what you want to find and the system returns bounding boxes for matching objects.Examples of prompts: "dented car bumper" "person wearing red backpack" "cat scratching couch" "broken window"The model is open-vocabulary, so it can generalize beyond...

Show HN: Colab pipeline for auto-labeling datasets with prompt and training YOLO

https://github.com/useful-ai-tools/detect-anything

I built a Colab notebook that demonstrates a full pipeline for bootstrapping and training a YOLO object detection model without manual annotation.The workflow uses open-vocabulary object detection to generate bounding boxes from free-text prompts, which are then exported as YOLO labels and used to train a detector.Typical workflow in the notebook:Start with an unlabeled or weakly labeled image...

Thanks for the feedback. I’ve resolved the UI issues on mobile.

Show HN: Satellite imagery object detection using text prompts

https://www.useful-ai-tools.com/tools/satellite-analysis-demo/

I built a browser-based tool for detecting objects in satellite imagery using vision-language models (VLMs). You draw a polygon on the map and enter a text prompt such as "swimming pools", "oil tanks", or "buses". The system scans the selected area tile-by-tile and returns detections projected back onto the map as GeoJSON.Pipeline: select area and zoom level, split the region into mercantile...

Show HN: Detect any object in satellite imagery using a text prompt

https://www.useful-ai-tools.com/tools/satellite-analysis-demo/

I built a browser-based tool that uses Vision-Language Models (VLMs) to detect objects in satellite imagery via natural language prompts. Draw a polygon on the map, type what you want to find (e.g., "swimming pools," "oil tanks," "solar panels"), and the system scans tile-by-tile, projecting bounding boxes back onto the globe as GeoJSON. The pipeline: pick zoom level + prompt → slice map into...

Re:I connected Chat GPT like AI with search engine on Thursday December 15, 2022 @06:13AM (#33997832)
can you add a way to make the search bar like text area to allow multi-lined query.
