Discovering and describing objects and relationships
Monitoring the states of objects and relationships over time
Characterizing activities, interpreting the meaning of state changes with context
Inferencing about activities, enabling probabilistic forecasting and hypothesis testing

Automated synthetic training data eliminates most of the time-intensive effort of collecting, managing and labeling data.
Radiometrically accurate training datasets closely match real data by simulating every step of the tasking, collection and processing chain.
Algorithms trained with synthetic training data have been validated as accurate compared to algorithms trained with real data.

L3Harris can automate simulated training data generation for panchromatic, multispectral, thermal, hyperspectral and SAR systems so missions can be accelerated.
RETURN TO
SYNTHETIC TRAINING DATA
Our recipe for high-performance synthetic training data for defense missions is the result of three capabilities:
Domain adaptation: L3Harris has invested in the use of domain adaptation to map synthetic data into the space of real data to ensure it is bias-free. We use state-of-the-art metrics to characterize the relationship between synthetic and real datasets, which ensures the synthetic generation process delivers highest performing training data.
Sensor modeling: L3Harris has more than 50 years of experience applying image science expertise to imaging systems. We bring this unique skill of accurately modeling the imagery for proposed system to deliver industry-leading, gold-standard simulated data for AI/ML.
Radiometric ray tracing: Unlike the gaming industry, L3Harris accurately models imaging system that simulate actual sensor characteristics under specific real-world collection conditions to ensure accuracy far beyond what the human eye can see.

Accuracy Counts, No Programming Required
L3Harris’ commercial off-the-shelf deep-learning technology is specifically designed to work with remotely sensed imagery and solve geospatial problems.
ENVI® Deep Learning at Work:
Urban Growth: The ENVI® Deep Learning module makes it easy to explore and assess the environment. The module was used to generate the landcover classification image shown here. When another image was generated the following year, traditional change detection workflows in ENVI® were used to approximate the human impact on the environment and detect objects like new buildings and well pads.

Agriculture: Using the ENVI® Deep Learning module, the locations of current and past lava flows in Hawaii were identified. This information was used in ENVI® to understand the environmental impact that the volcanic gasses had on local crops, which gave farmers insights for insurance claims and an ability to understand if crops are safe for human consumption.
3 of 3
Disaster Response: When disasters strike, response time is very important. The ENVI® Deep Learning module has been tuned so you don’t need thousands of samples to create models for finding features. After a recent hurricane, the module was used to quickly characterize different types of damage to buildings throughout the region ranging from partial to full destruction. First, a handful of small areas were labeled according to the extent of the damage. When the model was applied to the scene, the damaged buildings were automatically classified according to the extent of the damage they sustained.
