Technical Report Progress on Target and Terrain Recognition Research at Colorado State University

Progress on Target and Terrain Recognition Research at Colorado State University .

A target recognition capability is described which performs: color detection, target type and pose hypothesis generation, and target veri cation by 3D alignment of target models to range and optical imagery. The term `coregistration' is introduced to describe target, range and optical sensor alignment. The following key veri cation components are described and demonstrated: target-model feature...

Computer Science Technical Report A Coregistration Approach to Multisensor Target Recognition with Extensions to Exploit Digital Elevation Map Data

A target recognition capability is described that performs: color target detection, target type and pose hypothesis generation, and target type veri cation by 3-D alignment of target models to range and electro-optical imagery. The term `coregistration' is introduced to describe target, range and electro-optical (color and IR) sensor alignment correction. Online model feature prediction using 3...

RSTA Research of the Colorado State, University of Massachusetts and Alliant Techsystems Team

The complementary nature of LADAR, FLIR and color data for ATR is being exploited by new algorithms in a three stage recognition system. The stages are initial detection, target class and pose hypothesis generation, and precise model to multisensor coregistra-tion matching. Coregistration globally aligns 3D target models with range, IR and color imagery while simultaneously reening registration...

Assessment of Terrain and Land Use/Land Cover Changes of Mine Sites using Geospatial Techniques in Plateau State, Nigeria

In this paper, we report a geospatial assessment of the selected mine sites in the Plateau State, Nigeria. The aim of this work is to determine the impact of mining on the terrain as well as the Land Use/Land Cover (LULC) of the host communities. The Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) is used for the terrain mapping. The derived impact of mining on LULC between 1975 and 2014 is determined...
