Estimating Geo-temporal Location of Stationary Cameras Using Shadow Trajectories
[chapter]
2008
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Using only shadow trajectories of stationary objects in a scene, we demonstrate that using a set of six or more photographs are sufficient to accurately calibrate the camera. ...
Moreover, we present a novel application where, using only three points from the shadow trajectory of the objects, one can accurately determine the geo-location of the camera, up to a longitude ambiguity ...
The cue that we use for geo-temporal localization of the camera, (defined henceforth as the physical location of the camera (GPS coordinates) and the date of image acquisition) is the shadow trajectories ...

Camera calibration and geo-location estimation from two shadow trajectories
2010
Computer Vision and Image Understanding
This paper investigates the property of solar shadow trajectories on a planar surface and shows that camera parameters, latitude, longitude and shadow casting objects' relative height ratios can be estimated ...
The other contribution is that we use the design of an analemmatic sundial to get the shadow conic and furthermore recover the camera's geographical location. ...
Junejo and Foroosh [26] use shadow points from shadow trajectory of objects to determine the geo-location of a camera. ...

Map-Enhanced Detection and Tracking from a Moving Platform with Local and Global Data Association
2007
2007 IEEE Workshop on Motion and Video Computing (WMVC'07)
The map information is used as a global constraint for compensating the camera motion, which is critical for motion detection on a moving platform. ...
Moreover, given a global map, such as a satellite image, our approach can locate and track the targets in geo-coordinates, namely longitude and latitude. ...
The concept of background model can be extended to non-stationary cameras by compensating for the camera motion before estimating of the background model. We adopt the sliding window method in [4] . ...

Structure from shadow motion
2014
2014 IEEE International Conference on Computational Photography (ICCP)
We demonstrate reconstruction results on a variety of outdoor scenes, including some that show the 3D structure of occluders never directly observed by the camera. ...
Thus, we develop a shadow tracking system that enforces geometric consistency for each track and then combines thousands of tracking results to create a 3D model of scene geometry. ...
Junejo and Foroosh [15] calibrate the intrinsic parameters of a camera and solve for constraints on camera geo-location from the trajectories of shadows of two points moving across a ground plane, and ...

Efficient detection and tracking of moving objects in geo-coordinates
2010
Machine Vision and Applications
We propose to use a two-step geo-registration approach to stitch images acquired by satellite and UAV cameras. ...
Given a global map, such as a satellite image, our approach can locate and track the targets in geo-coordinates, namely longitude and latitude obtained from geo-registration. ...
The coarse initialization is implemented with local appearance matching using normalized correlation. The fine geo-registration is acquired by estimating the projection matrix of camera given DEM. ...

A ROBUST REGISTRATION ALGORITHM FOR POINT CLOUDS FROM UAV IMAGES FOR CHANGE DETECTION
2016
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
The customisation included adding a GPS logger and a Large-Field-Of-View (LFOV) action camera which facilitated capturing high-resolution geo-tagged images in two epochs over the period of one year (i.e ...
Note that due to the coarse accuracy of the on-board GPS receiver (e.g., +/- 5-10 m) the geo-tagged positions of the images were only used as initial values in the bundle block adjustment. ...
The authors are grateful also to Daniel Wujanz (Department of Geodesy and Geoinformation Science, Berlin Institute of Technology) who processed the data using ICProx-algorithm to automatically extract ...
