Abstract: An embodiment for reusing data in content files includes receiving a request for a content file and retrieving a recipe that includes a series of instructions needed to compose the content file. Data identified by the recipe may then be retrieved from a content file server and the requested content file is composed based on the set of instructions in the recipe. In an example, the recipe is processed by a recipe player to compose a content file. In another embodiment, content files are stored in a cache as a series of instructions for generating them from portions of other content files. In this way, performance in a content delivery network may be improved by reusing similar data in content files.

Abstract: In one aspect, a computer-implemented method for adjusting pixel saturation may generally include accessing, by one or more computing devices, a target distribution function associated with at least one target image and an input distribution function associated with at least one input image. The target distribution function may define a target probability for a pixel saturation of each pixel within the target image(s). The input distribution function may define an input probability for an initial saturation value of each pixel within the input image(s), with the input image(s) differing from the target image(s). The method may also include associating, by the computing device(s), the initial saturation value of each pixel within the input image(s) with a target saturation value based on the input and target distribution functions and adjusting, by the computing device(s), the initial saturation value of each pixel within the input image(s) to the corresponding target saturation value.

Abstract: Systems and methods for associating geographic coordinates with one or more points in a digital geographic image, such as a satellite image, aerial image, ground based image, street level image or other suitable geographic image are provided. More particularly, a digital geographic image can be analyzed to identify one or more features that may be suitable as measurement points for collecting measured ground truth data. The one or more features can be described as a mathematical model that defines image coordinates along the feature depicted in the digital geographic image with sub-pixel accuracy. Image coordinates can be assigned to the measurement points with sub-pixel accuracy using the mathematical model. Collected ground truth data can then be associated with the identified image coordinates to allow for the more precise association of geographic coordinate information to points in the digital geographic imagery.
