ABSTRACT:
A method of recognizing an object in an image is provided using multi-sensor integration through conditionally optimal geo-scene generation and registration. At least two images, one of which is a conditionally optimum, ortho-rectified base image, are input and used to generate a geoscene using ground control points in a latitude-longitude geospatial domain. Georegistration of the geoscene produces a registered geoimage which may be output. A virtual geospatial information system database may be compiled from the georegistered images. A Virtual Transverse Mercator (VTM) projection is defined which allows processing of images falling on both sides of the equator or across traditional UTM boundaries. The georegistration process utilizes the union and the intersection of image pixels, and geooverlaying with interacting layers including geogrids and text layers, to define main body and background pixels to facilitate object recognition.
