Please help me understand this sentence.

When fully deployed these methods can produce geographical descriptions highly suggestive of landscape paintings as such, challenging the validity of the laboured distinction between the geographical and aesthetic landscapes.

1. I'd like to know if I can add a comma after "When fully deployed", and if "these methods" is the subject of the whole sentence. If it is not so, I feel the whole sentence is lacking a subject.
2. Does the bold formatting phrase mean "highly suggestive geographical descriptions of landscape paintings as such" ? Actually I couldn't figure out what "highly suggestive" refers to.
3. Does laboured distinction mean unnatural distinction?

Thanks a lot!
