1. A system for performing global scale object detection using satellite imagery, comprising: an object detection server comprising at least a plurality of programming instructions stored in a memory and operating on a processor of a network-connected computing device, the plurality of programming instructions adapted for performing global scale object detection: wherein the object detection server: (a) receives, at the object detection server, at least a plurality of image information from an image database; (b) analyzes, at the object detection server, at least a portion of the image information to produce analysis results, the analysis comprising: (i) extracting a plurality of scale-invariant transform descriptors based at least in part on the at least a portion of the plurality of image information; (ii) performing k-means clustering on the at least a portion of the plurality of image information; (iii) producing a plurality of locally-constrained linear codes based at least in part on the at least a portion of the plurality of image information; and (iv) encoding at least a portion of the plurality of scale-invariant transform descriptors by employing distance-based soft-assignments for the plurality of scale-invariant transform descriptors with the plurality of locally-constrained linear codes; (c) produces, at the object detection server, at least a plurality of object vector representations based at least in part on at least a portion of the analysis results; and a curation interface comprising at least another plurality of programming instructions stored in another memory and operating on another processor of another computing device and coupled to the object detection server: wherein the curation interface: (d) receives, at the curation interface, at least a portion of a plurality of image information; (e) receives, at the curation interface, interaction from a human user device; and (f) modifies, at the curation interface, at least a portion of the plurality of image information based at least in part on at least a portion of the user interaction.
