Automatic Evaluation of Landmarks for Image-Based Navigation Update
2009

For the actual navigation update a landmark-based approach is used. It is essential that the used landmarks are well chosen. ...
Therefore we introduce an approach for evaluating landmarks in terms of the matching distance, which is the maximum misplacement in the position of the landmark that can be corrected. ...
