Book description

Image registration employs digital image processing in order to bring two or more digital images into precise alignment for analysis and comparison. Accurate registration algorithms are essential for creating mosaics of satellite images and tracking changes on the planet's surface over time. Bringing together invited contributions from thirty-six distinguished researchers, the book presents a detailed overview of current research and practice in the application of image registration to remote sensing imagery. Chapters cover the problem definition, theoretical issues in accuracy and efficiency, fundamental algorithms, and real-world case studies of image registration software applied to imagery from operational satellite systems. This book provides a comprehensive and practical overview for Earth and space scientists, presents image processing researchers with a summary of current research, and can be used for specialised graduate courses.

Reviews

‘The book explains the main image-registration issues involved in remote sensing in a comprehensive, convincing, and well-written manner. The coverage of the topic is excellent, and experimental examples with simulated and real data are also shown in most chapters. The reading is accessible to both specialists and nonspecialists, including students. Stimulating discussions on scientific and applicative challenges, possible solution strategies, and the accuracy, optimality, and efficiency of such strategies can be found throughout the book and make it an outstanding treatise that can be extremely interesting to a wide audience.’
