Automatic Geometric and Radiometric Registration of Landsat-TM Images Using Mutual Information
نویسندگان
چکیده
This work is on development of a method for automatic registration of satellite images acquired on different dates, for both geometric and radiometric correction with respect to a reference image. Mutual information statistics is used as the similarity metric of geometric and radiometric registration. Affine and linear transformations are used in geometric and radiometric correction respectively. Powell's method is applied in iterative optimization to find the best transformation parameters for both types of registration, based on the maximum mutual information between images. The method is validated using Landsat's Thematic Mapper (TM) sensor, bands 3, 4 and 5 images, obtained on five separate dates for scene 231-062 in the Central Amazon.

Evaluation of Similarity Measures for Template Matching
Image matching is a critical process in various photogrammetry, computer vision and remote sensing applications such as image registration, 3D model reconstruction, change detection, image fusion, pattern recognition, autonomous navigation, and digital elevation model (DEM) generation and orientation. The primary goal of the image matching process is to establish the correspondence between two ...
متن کاملAutomatic radiometric normalization of multitemporal satellite imagery
The linear scale invariance of the multivariate alteration detection (MAD) transformation is used to obtain invariant pixels for automatic relative radiometric normalization of time series of multispectral data. Normalization by means of ordinary least squares regression method is compared with normalization using orthogonal regression. The procedure is applied to Landsat TM images over Nevada,...
متن کاملElastic Image Registration for Landslides Monitoring
Landslide is a type of mass movement that causes damage in many areas. The evolving remote sensing technology in producing high resolution images may help in landslide studies. However, the problem in detecting small size landslides is still challenging when suitable image resolution of the area being analyzed is not available. In this paper, a novel method based on elastic image registration, ...

متن کاملA Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information
Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...
