Description / Table of Contents:
Image registration employs digital image processing in order to bring two or more digital images into precise alignment for analysis and comparison. Accurate registration algorithms are essential in supporting earth and planetary scientists as they mosaic remote sensing satellite images and track changes of the planet's surface over time for environmental, political, and basic science studies. The book brings together invited contributions by 36 distinguished researchers in the field to present a coherent and detailed overview of current research and practice in the application of image registration to satellite imagery. The chapters cover the problem definition, theoretical issues in accuracy and efficiency, fundamental algorithms used in its solution , and real-world case studies of image registration software applied to imagery from operational satellite systems. This book is an essential reference for earth and space scientists who need a comprehensive and practical overview on how to obtain optimal georegistration of their data, an indispensable source for image processing researchers interested in current resarch, and the ideal text for teaching a special topic university graduate course.
