Abstract
Image capture systems are disclosed, including an image capture system, comprising: an image capture device mounted on a moving platform, the image capture device having a sensor for capturing an aerial image having pixels; and a detection computer executing an abnormality detection algorithm for detecting an abnormality in the pixels of the aerial image immediately after the aerial image is captured by scanning the aerial image utilizing predetermined parameters indicative of characteristics of the abnormality and then automatically scheduling a re-shoot of the aerial image such that the re-shoot occurs prior to landing of the moving platform, wherein the abnormality detection algorithm causes the detection computer to scan the aerial image using pattern recognition techniques to detect the abnormality in the pixels of the aerial image.
