Trimble eCognition is a sophisticated AI-powered geospatial software platform that transforms raw geospatial input into actionable geo-information. Using patented object-based image analysis technology , it segments and classifies imagery, point clouds, and vector data by evaluating contextual relationships between objects—colors, shapes, textures, and spatial position. The software is highly customizable, allowing users to craft custom rule-based workflows tailored to specific analysis goals. It supports multi-source data integration, enabling the fusion of raster, vector, and point cloud data. Python integration further enhances its flexibility, letting users automate and refine processes with advanced scripting. eCognition Developer is used to develop rules and workflows which guide your geospatial analysis processes. An extensive collection of algorithms can be dynamically combined resulting in a custom application which reflects the user’s desired analysis approach and requirements. Trimble eCognition Developer is the heart of the eCognition Suite for geospatial professionals who want full control over image analysis workflows. It is a desktop-based development environment designed to help users build, test, and refine rule sets for object-based image analysis (OBIA). With Developer, analysts can fuse multiple data types—raster, vector, and point clouds—and apply semantic logic to extract meaningful features from complex geospatial datasets. The platform supports Python scripting, enabling advanced automation and customization. Users can define classification rules, segment imagery based on texture and shape, and create highly tailored applications for land cover mapping, urban planning, forestry, and environmental monitoring. Whether you're prototyping a new workflow or building a reusable analysis package, eCognition Developer offers the flexibility and precision needed to turn raw data into actionable insights. Note: The  Commercial license is designed for businesses and government agencies using eCognition for professional purposes. It provides full access to all features, modules, and support services for enterprise-level deployment.
