The stereo camera system has a fixed baseline and therefore has a constant scale. However, it is difficult to measure the actual three-dimensional coordinate since the scale is not fixed when relative orientation parameters are determined through the key-point matching in the stereo image each time. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to perform the stereo camera calibration that simultaneously determines the internal characteristics of the left and right cameras and the camera relationship between them using the modified collinearity equation and compared it with the two independent single cameras calibration. In the experiment using the images taken at close range, the RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) of ${\pm}0.014m$ was occurred when the three dimensional distances were compared in the single calibration results. On the other hand, the accuracy of the three-dimensional distance of the stereo camera calibration was better because the stereo camera results were almost no error compared to the results from two single cameras. In the comparison of the epipolar images, the RMSE of the stereo camera was 0.3 pixel more than that of the two single cameras, but the effect was not significant.

The urbanization of Korea has been rapidly progressed since 1960, but satellite imagery have provided the information only after 1975. Recently released CORONA imagery is one of the few source of satellite image which can provide 1960's topographic information of the Korean Peninsular. It can be applied to change detection in various fields such as urban, forest, and environmental planning. In this research mosaic image of past Korean Peninsular using CORONA imagery in the 1960s were generated. A polynomial equation and a modified collinearity equation were applied for geo-referencing and a comparative analysis was conducted. In this research the 2nd polynomial equations were used for geo-referencing of CORONA imagery. After carrying out geo-referencing, mosaic image was generated using Erdas Imagine. It is assumed that this result image is very useful for various fields such as generation of thematic maps, urban planning, and change detection.
