Mark,
I'm interested to hear what others think about this.
I recently started using eCognition after playing with the demo for a year or so. I really like it and do think this is a very sensible way to do image classification. Our GIS/RS lab is eligible for the education discount so the price was reasonable. I would not pay $18k for it since all you really get is a set of methods for image classification. The other software you mention does a heck of a lot more than image classification for a fraction of the price. My guess is that other venders will implement this segmentation-based classification approach in the next couple years and then this technology will be available for a more reasonable price.

Hello All,
Does anyone have any experience, thoughts, or opinions about Definiens object-oriented image analysis software eCognition (http://www.definiens-imaging.com/)?
A bit of a loaded question, but I am wondering if it is worth the price ($18k) relative to more traditional pixel-oriented classification software (IMAGINE, ENVI, PCI, etc.).
Any comments would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark.
