The geometry of satellite image captured by linear pushbroom scanner is different from that of frame camera image. Since the exterior orientation parameters for satellite image will vary scan line by scan line, the epipolar geometry of satellite image differs from that of frame camera image. As we know, 2D affine orientation for the epipolar image of linear pushbroom scanners system are well-established by using the collinearity equation (Testsu Ono, 1999). Also, another epipolar geometry of linear pushbroom scanner system is recently established by Habib(2002). He reported that the epipolar geometry of linear push broom satellite image is realized by parallel projection based on 2D affine models. Here, in this paper, we compared the Ono's method with Habib's method. In addition, we proposed a method that generates epipolar resampled images. For the experiment, IKONOS stereo images were used in generating epipolar images.

에피폴라 영상은 원 영상에서 y-시차를 제거한 영상으로 3차원 입체 모델을 생성하거나 지도를 제작하기 위해서 필수적인 기술이다. 에피폴라 영상 제작에는 두 영상에서 특징점을 정합한 후 상호표정요소를 추정하여 생성하는 방법과 외부표정요소를 결정한 후 두 영상의 기선과 회전각을 이용하는 방법이 있다. 본 연구에서는 입력 영상의 외부표정요소에서 방향코사인을 이용하여 에피폴라 영상을 제작하는 방법과 원 영상에서 에피폴라 영상으로 변환할 때 용이한 계산을 위하여 변환관계를 행렬을 이용하는 방법론을 제안하였다. 제안한 방법론의 적용성은 고정익과 회전익 드론에서 촬영한 영상을 이용하여 평가하였으며 그 결과 드론의 형태에 관계없이 에피폴라 영상이 적합하게 제작됨을 알 수 있었다.

High-resolution satellite imagery are used in various application field such as generation of DEM, orthophto, and three dimensional city model. To define the relation between image and object space, sensor modelling and generation of the epipolar image is essential processes. As the header information or physical sensor model becomes unavailable for the end users due to the national security or commercial purpose, generation of epipolar images without these information becomes one of important processes. In this study, epipolar geometry is generated and analysed by applying two generalized sensor models; parallel and parallel-perspective model Epipolar equation of the parallel model has linear property which is relatively simple; Epipolar geometry of the parallel-perspective model is non-linear. This linear property enable us to generate epipolar image efficiently.

Epipolar images have to be generated to stereo display aerial images or satellite images. Pushbroom sensor is used to acquire high resolution satellite images. These satellite images have curvilinear epipolar lines unlike the epipolar lines of frame images, which are straight lines. The aforementioned fact makes it difficult to generate epipolar images for pushbroom satellite images. If we assume a linear transition of the sensor having constant speed and attitude during image acquisition, we can generate epipolar images based on parallel projection model (2D Affine model). Recent high resolution images are provided with RPC values so that we can exploit these values to generate epipolar images without using ground control points and tie point. This paper provides a procedure based on the parallel projection model for generating epipolar images directly from a stereo IKONOS images, and experimental results.

수치사진측량에서 이용되는 대부분의 알고리즘은 수치화된 입체영상이 epipolar 기하상태를 이루고 있다는 가정을 근거로 하고 있으므로, 입체쌍의 주사선이 epipolartjs이 되어야 한다. 그러나 항공사진의 경우는 매 순간의 촬영위치에서 촬영자세가 달라지므로 epipolar 기하상태를 이루지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 한 쌍의 입체항공사진을 주사기(scanner)에 의해 수치영상으로 변환시키고, 절대표정후의 외부표정요소를 이용해 영상 재배열을 수행하는 과정에서 대해 연구하였다. 그 결과 입체수치영상으로부터 epipolar 기하상태의 영상을 생성하였다. 생성된 epipolar 영상은 영상정합 과정에 적용하기 위해 수치영상상관기법으로 영상정합을 실시하였고, 영상정합의 결과를 이용해 수치표고모형을 제작하였다. 영상정합에 의해 생성된 수치표모고형은 해석도화기에 의해 생성된 수치표고모형과 비교하였으며 그 결과 경제적인 방법으로 수치표고모형을 제작하는 방안이 제시되었다.

As high-resolution satellite images have enabled large scale topographic mapping and monitoring on global scale with short revisit time, agile sensor orientation, and large swath width, many countries make effort to secure the satellite image information. In Korea, KOMPSAT-2 (KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite-2) was launched in July 28 2006 with high specification. These satellites have stereo image acquisition capability for 3D mapping and monitoring. To efficiently handle stereo images such as stereo display and monitoring, the accurate epipolar image generation process is prerequisite. However, the process was highly limited due to complexity in epipolar geometry of pushbroom sensor. Recently, the piecewise approach to generate epipolar images using RPC was developed and tested for in-track IKONOS stereo images. In this paper, the piecewise approach was tested for KOMPSAT-2 across-track stereo images to see how accurately KOMPSAT-2 epipolar images can be generated for 3D geospatial applications. In the experiment, two across-track stereo sets from three KOMPSAT-2 images of different dates were tested using RPC as the sensor model. The test results showed that one-pixel level of y-parallax was achieved for manually measured tie points.

선형 CCD 센서에 의해 획득되는 위성영상의 기하는 프레임 카메라 영상의 기하와는 차이점을 가지고 있다. 이는 각 스캔 선마다 영상의 외부표정요소가 다르기 때문에 발생한다. 따라서 기존의 프레임 영상에 사용되었던 에피폴라 기하와는 다른 기하가 필요하게 된다. 이와 같은 관점에서, 본 연구에서는 대표적인 선형 CCD 센서를 사용하여 촬영된 IKONOS 위성영상을 이용하여 에피폴라 영상을 제작하기 위한 영상 재배열 방법에 대한 연구를 수행하였으며, 영상의 투영조건을 중심투영이 아닌 평행투영으로 간주하여 구성된 2D 부등각 센서모델을 적용하였다. 이센서 모델에 의해 구성된 에피폴라 선식으로부터 유도된 정규 매개변수와 부등각 변환을 적용하여 에피폴라 재배열영상을 제작하였다. 결과로써, 2D 부등각 센서모델의 정확도가 검증되었으며, 제작된 에피폴라 영상을 사용하여 추출된 3차원 위치정확도는 IKONOS의 RFM 위치정확도와 유사하게 도출되었다.

Image resampling according to epipolar geometry is an important prerequisite for a variety of photogrammetric tasks. Established procedures for resampling frame images according to epipolar geometry are not suitable for scenes captured by line cameras. In this paper, the mathematical model describing epipolar lines in scenes captured by line cameras moving with constant velocity and attitude is established and analyzed. The choice of this trajectory is motivated by the fact that many line cameras can be assumed to follow such a flight path during the short duration of a scene capture (especially when considering space-borne imaging platforms). Experimental results from synthetic along-track and across-track stereo-scenes are presented. For these scenes, the deviations of the resulting epipolar lines from straightness, as the camera's angular field of view decreases, are quantified and presented.

This study presents an automatic matching method for generating a dense, accurate, and discontinuity-preserved digital surface model (DSM) using multiple images acquired by an aerial digital frame camera. The proposed method consists of two main procedures: area-based multi-image matching (AMIM) and stereo-pair epipolar line matching (SELM). AMIM evaluates the sum of the normalized cross correlation of corresponding image points from multiple images to determine the optimal height of an object point. A novel method is introduced for determining the search height range and incremental height, which are necessary for the vertical line locus used in the AMIM. This procedure also includes the means to select the best reference and target images for each strip so that multi-image matching can resolve the common problem over occlusion areas. The SELM extracts densely positioned distinct points along epipolar lines from the multiple images and generates a discontinuity-preserved DSM using geometric and radiometric constraints. The matched points derived by the AMIM are used as anchor points between overlapped images to find conjugate distinct points using epipolar geometry. The performance of the proposed method was evaluated for several different test areas, including urban areas.
