Epipolar Rectification for Cartosat-1 Stereo Images Using Sift and Ransac
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cartosat-1 provides stereo images of spatial resolution 2.5m with high fidelity of geometry. Stereo camera on the spacecraft has look angles of +26 degree and -5 degree respectively that yields effective along track stereo. Any DSM generation algorithm can use the stereo images for accurate 3D reconstruction and measurement of ground. Dense match points and pixel-wise matching are prerequisite in DSM generation to capture discontinuities and occlusions for accurate 3D modelling application. Epipolar image matching reduces the computational effort from two dimensional area searches to one dimensional. Thus, epipolar rectification is preferred as a pre-processing step for accurate DSM generation. In this paper we explore a method based on SIFT and RANSAC for epipolar rectification of cartosat-1 stereo images.

Fish-Eye-Stereo Calibration and Epipolar Rectification
The paper describes calibration and epipolar rectification for stereo with fish-eye optics. While stereo processing of classical cameras is state of the art for many applications, stereo with fish-eye cameras have been much less discussed in literature. This paper discusses the geometric calibration and the epipolar rectification as prerequisite for stereo processing with fish-eyes. First, it s...
متن کاملCylindrical Rectication to Minimize Epipolar Distortion
We propose a new rectification method for aligning epipolar lines of a pair of stereo images taken under any camera geometry. It effectively remaps both images onto the surface of a cylinder instead of a plane, which is used in common rectification methods. For a large set of camera motions, remapping to a plane has the drawback of creating rectified images that are potentially infinitely large...
