Yes indeedy, sort of :-)
We are using it to determine the areas of different kinds of seabed
substrates in deep sea benthic photos.
The camera has two parallel lasers, so using these to scale each image we
extract a 50cm x 50cm square of seabed image to use for the quantitative
substrate analysis. We are also doing counts of various categories of
organisms as well.
I realise this is not at all the geo-spatial purpose you meant, but it is
a geospatial purpose :-)
We are also building a PostGIS database to store info about and derived
from each image, using PostGIS to store image locations (points are close
enough for our purposes) with UMN Mapserver providing the server
functionality for a map based image query tool. I know there has been some
discussion of image analysis on a few Open Source GIS-related lists I
subscribe to, and I have mentioned ImageJ there.
You might want to try somewhere like the freegis list as well as here?
DM Solutions provide some effective Java based geospatial tools, I don't
know if you are familiar with JUMP? (Java Unified Mapping Package from
memory)
There may well be some synergies available if ImageJ can be used to work
with geotiffs?
