AUTOMATIC STEREO PERCEPTION OF AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHY BY MEANS OF OPTICAL CORRELATION

Abstract

The following studies are included in this report: a discussion of the principles of optical correlation and the application to stereo measurements; a description of some potential stereo correlator instrumentations; a study of the behavior of the autocorrelation function as the sample size is reduced; a comparison of stereo measurements under three different conditions, and an investigation of improved configurations. The principal result is that optical correlation is suitable for stereo measurements.
