Is imaging technology advanced enough to do this?

Dear ImageJ members:


Is technology advanced enough now to do what I describe in the next few
lines? Given that Google Maps stores the data and images captured from the
roads, is there a way to automatically combine artificial intelligence
software to id the obvious objects (e.g., plants) all over the planet and
whenever one is detected, dump the image into a folder of images along with
the all-important lat, long, and the date? Once the software learns that
such and such shape is whatever is of interest to us, it can
*automatically* keep identifying the object and dumping images with the
necessary ancillary data. In other words, like the folks who advocated
phenetics in the 1960's, can machines do the grunt work currently done by
mortals? Thanks for any constructive feedback to [hidden email] .


Sincerely,


Jorge


P.S. With apologies for potential duplicate emails.
