摘要: 随着我国低空空域对民用的开放,无人机 (Unmanned aerial vehicles, UAVs)的应用将是一个巨大的潜在市场. 目前,如何对轻便的无人机获取的图像进行全自动处理,是一项急需解决的瓶颈技术. 本文将探索如何将近年来在视频、图像领域获得巨大成功的三维重建技术应用到无人机图像处理领域, 对无人机图像进行全自动的大场景三维重建.本文首先给出了经典增量式三维重建方法Bundler在无人机图像处理中存在的问题, 然后通过分析无人机图像的辅助信息的特点,提出了一种基于批处理重建(Batch reconstruction)框架下的鲁棒无人机图像三维重建方法.多组无人机图像三维重建实验表明: 本文提出的方法在算法鲁棒性、三维重建效率与精度等方面都具有很好的结果.Abstract: With the latest deregulation and opening-up policy of Chinese government on low altitude airspace to private sectors, the applications of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be a huge potential market. Currently the automatic processing technology of UAV images is far behind the market demand, and has become the bottleneck of various applications. This work is meant to apply hugely successful scene reconstruction techniques in computer vision field to large scene reconstruction from UAV images. To this end, at first, specific problems of direct application of the Bundler, a popular increment reconstruction technique in computer vision are investigated. Then a batch reconstruction method from UAV images is proposed by fully taking into account various pieces of prior information which are usually available in UAV images, such as those from GPS, IMU, DSM, etc. Our method is tested with several sets of UAV images, and the experiments show that our method performs satisfactorily in terms of robustness, accuracy and scalability for UAV images.
