摘要: 随着无人机( unmanned aerial vehicle,UAV)技术的飞快发展,UAV已成为航空遥感图像获取的重要手段。但与传统的大飞机航空摄影相比,UAV在平台的稳定性方面较差,采集图像时受自身配重、即时飞行环境等外界因素影响,使得最终获得的遥感图像存在复杂的几何变形,导致其图像配准过程存在很大的困难。针对此问题,首先基于UAV的POS数据进行图像重叠区域估算,利用Forstner算子提取图像中的特征点并结合信息熵对图像进行分块处理;然后通过基于旋转的归一化互相关( normalized cross-correlation,NCC)系数寻找相匹配的同名特征点,最终实现UAV图像的配准。实验结果证明该方法切实有效,并且保持了较好的鲁棒性。Abstract: With its fast development,the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology has become an important method for obtaiing the remote sensing image data. Nevertheless, this flexibility, rapid acquisition method for remote sensing image has poor stability in the platform in comparison with the traditional way of large aircraft aerial potography. The acquisition process of UAV image is affected by its counterweight,real-time flight environment and other external factors,and all of these factors lead to a host of difficulties in image registration. In this paper, firstly,the authors used the POS data to estimate the overlapped area of the UAV image, utilized the Forstner operator to extract feature points, and segmented the images based on the entropy information. After that, the matching feature points were found with the rotation model based on normalized cross-correlation( NCC) . Finally, the registration of the UAV images was realized. The experimental results show that the method proposed in this paper is effective and maintains a better robustness.
