ABSTRACT:
An aerial imaging system includes a platform capable of moving through the air, a spatial sensor, a plurality of image sensors mounted to the platform and a computer. The spatial sensor collects position data indicating the position of the platform. The plurality of image sensors includes a key sensor and at least one non-key sensor. The computer includes a storage device and a processor configured to execute instructions comprising the steps of (i) controlling the plurality of image sensors to collect image data simultaneously, (ii) determining the exterior orientation of the key sensor based on the position data, and (iii) determining the exterior orientation of at least one non-key sensor based on the exterior orientation of the key sensor.
