<strong>Definiens</strong> <strong>Developer</strong> 7 - User Guide<br />

1 Overview<br />

1.3 About the Software Development<br />

Kit (SDK)<br />

<strong>Definiens</strong> <strong>Developer</strong> includes a software development kit (SDK), which enables you to<br />

modify <strong>Definiens</strong> software without knowledge of the whole development code base.<br />

The SDK consists of three components each representing an application programming<br />

interfaces (API):<br />

• Data IO API for developing drivers, or plug-ins for data connectivity and<br />

integration.<br />

• Engine API for expanding the capabilities of the <strong>Definiens</strong> Analysis Engine Software<br />

by plug-ins providing additional algorithms or features.<br />

• Automation API for automating <strong>Definiens</strong> software and orchestrating the different<br />

processes. Local automation allows you to embed the eCognition Analysis Engine<br />

into other software. Remote Processing enables you to provide functionality that<br />

can be, for instance, used in a script, in order to automate <strong>Definiens</strong> eCognition<br />

Server.<br />
