Octave Imagine

Octave Imagine (formerly ERDAS IMAGINE) provides true value, consolidating remote sensing, photogrammetry, LiDAR analysis, basic vector analysis, radar processing and artificial intelligence (AI) into a single product. 

Purpose-built for professionals working with satellite imagery, aerial photography, LiDAR point clouds and earth observation data. Veris provides Octave Imagine licensing, implementation, support and training for Australian and New Zealand clients.

Product overview

The professional standard for remote sensing and imagery analysis

Octave Imagine is a trusted platform for geospatial professionals working with complex imagery and Earth observation data. It supports a wide range of advanced workflows, including satellite image classification, LiDAR point cloud processing and large-volume batch automation, helping users extract meaningful spatial intelligence from diverse data sources.

The Octave Imagine product suite also includes ECW Compression and GeoCompressor, extending its capability beyond traditional imagery analysis to support efficient data compression, management and delivery.

Comprehensive image processing 

Advanced algorithms for image classification, change detection, orthorectification and object-based image analysis. Supports satellite, aerial and UAV imagery from a wide range of sensor models. 

LiDAR and point cloud analysis

Process and analyse LiDAR point clouds from airborne and ground-based sensors. Generate DTMs, DSMs, canopy height models and 3D building footprints for terrain and surface analysis.

AI and machine learning tools

Object detection, feature extraction and deep learning-based classification tools accelerate analysis workflows. AI capabilities are accessible without specialist coding expertise.

Workflow automation and batch processing

Create and automate complex processing chains using the graphical Model Maker environment. Process large volumes of imagery using multi-core and multi-machine parallel processing.

Extensive data format support

Read and write hundreds of raster, vector and point cloud formats. Native support for ECW, GeoTIFF, LAS/LAZ, HDF, NetCDF and imagery from all major satellite and sensor providers.

Octave Imagine in practice

NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
Octave Imagine enviro 1
Vegetation mapping and environmental monitoring

Classify land cover and vegetation types from satellite or UAV imagery. Time-series change detection supports monitoring of environmental condition, fire scar mapping and habitat assessment.

INFRASTRUCTURE
Octave Imagine infrastructure
Corridor mapping and infrastructure inspection

Process aerial and UAV imagery for linear infrastructure corridor mapping, condition assessment and change monitoring. Automate orthorectification and feature extraction across large coverage areas.

RESOURCES 
Octave Imagine resources
Resources exploration and geological mapping

Hyperspectral and multispectral imagery analysis for mineralogy, lithological mapping and exploration target identification. Terrain analysis from LiDAR supports structural geological interpretation.

GOVERNMENT
Octave Imagine government
Land use and urban change analysis

Monitor urban growth, land use change and land cover transitions using multi-temporal satellite imagery. Support planning, reporting and policy analysis with consistently classified spatial datasets.

Octave Imagine pairs naturally with Veris Reality Capture services

Veris captures UAV, LiDAR and aerial data through its Reality Capture services and Octave Imagine is the processing platform of choice for that data.
