A method, system, and medium are provided for presenting aspects of change
associated with a geographic area that has been captured by
high-resolution, remotely sensed imagery. One embodiment of the method
includes receiving a query directed at the geographic area that includes
one or more inputs, the query seeking an identification of regions
associated with the geographic area that are characterized by aspects of
change based on the one or more inputs; applying the query to a dataset
of geospatial information that stores imagery associated with the
geographic area, wherein the dataset includes information that is
sufficient to identify the regions, and wherein the imagery is derived
from the high-resolution, remotely sensed imagery, which is characterized
by having a resolution of three meters or less per pixel; receiving a
first results set that includes a first plurality of keys and
corresponding change scores, wherein, (1) each key is useable to identify
a certain region, and (2) each change score indicates an amount of change
in the certain region from a first state to a second state; and
presenting at least a portion of the results set in a viewing
application.
