Both Pathology/Remote sensing working on 2D moving to 3D images. Each pathology image could have 10 billion pixels, and we may extract a million spatial objects per image and 100 million features (dozens to 100 features per object) per image.

For each typical study, we may have hundreds to thousands of pathology images. Donald P. Shiley School of Engineering. University of Portland. EGR 110. First-Year Advising. Presentation Overview.
