Interactive Flying Spot Image Scanner For Matching High-Altitude Standoff Photographs
Abstract
The purposes of the realisation of an interactive flying soot are described in thiapaper. This flying spot is connected to a digital picture processing system. One of the characteristics is analysed in detail: the possibility of proceeding in an interactive way to geometrical deformations of pictures with a programmable scanning system. The application described is a method allowing to the geometrical matching of a geographic man and a Landsat digital standoff photograph. Some advantages Of this method are emphasized.
