Abstract

Modern Earth observation satellites are calibrated in such a way that a point on the ground can be located with an error of just a few pixels in the image domain. For many applications this error can be ignored, but this is not the case for stereo reconstruction, that requires sub-pixel accuracy. In this article we propose a method to correct this error. The method works by estimating local corrections that compensate the error relative to a reference image. The proposed method does not rely on ground control points, but only on the relative consistency of the image contents. We validate our method with Pléiades and WorldView-1 images on a representative set of geographic sites.
