Abstract

As the need for automating registration techniques is recognized, the authors feel that there is a need to survey all the registration methods which may be applicable to Earth and space science problems and to evaluate their performances on a large variety of existing remote sensing data as well as on simulated data of soon-to-be-flown instruments. The authors present the first steps towards this quantitative evaluation: a few automatic image registration algorithms are described and first results of their evaluation are presented for three different datasets
