Dynamic Mosaicking of Heterogeneous Digital Images

There is a high demand for mosaicking of digital images. The digital images are of different formats, different resolutions, band combinations, sizes, etc. This increases the complexity of the mosaicking of images. We propose a dynamic, real-time approach for mosaicking digital images of different temporal and spatial characteristics into tiles. Also, the source images at the time of mosaicking could be accessed from LAN locations and remote Internet locations. Further any specific source image can be reconstructed from the mosaicked tiles. This dynamic approach reuses digital images upon demand and generates mosaicked tiles only for the required region according to user’s requirements such as resolution, temporal range, target bands, etc.
