Study of DEM Generation Method Based on Multi-Baseline Image Sequences in Alpine-Gorge Areas
Due to the peculiar terrain of Alpine and Gorge Areas, traditional measuring method is difficult to adapt. We studied on a DEM generation method based on multi-baseline image sequences including an initial value estimate method of relative direction elements based on the perspective transformation and a matching method of image sequences based on virtual epipolar plane. The experiment proves that the convergence and accuracy of relative orientation can be effectively improved by estimating the initial elements with perspective transformation. In matching process, the matching points are transferred through virtual epipolar plane. So that, we can decreased calculation redundancy and obtain multi-overlap corresponding points rapidly and accurately.
