Taking advantage of Capella's ability to dwell on a target for an extended period of time (nominally 30s) in its spotlight (SP) mode, an unsupervised methodology for detecting moving targets in this data is presented in this paper. By colourizing short segments (sub-apertures) of the total imaging time, a colourised sub-aperture image (CSI) can be formed. This can be used in conjunction with well-established computer vision techniques to detect moving targets and track them in the SP image. In essence, the moving target detection problem is transformed from temporal image stack identification to colour segmentation in a single image. The presented detection and tracking are wholly unsupervised. Additionally, computer-vision-based tracking algorithms are demonstrated on detected movers and qualitatively assessed for accuracy of tracking.
