Abstract

A digital procedure for the generation and processing of scanner images is presented. The terrain is scanned by an opto-electronic three-line scan camera. Three linear sensor arrays are arranged in the focal plane of the camera objective perpendicularly to the flight course. Each sensor array produces an image strip of the covered terrain according to the pushbroom principle. Nodes of the DEM to be computed are selected in the middle image strip whose object planes are nearly vertical. Raster plots of ortho and stereo orthophotos are produced after digital rectification of the image strips, utilizing the nodes of the DEM grid. -from STAR, 21(4), 1983
