Construção de mosaicos georreferenciados usando imagens aéreas de pequeno formato. 2008. 94 f. Dissertação (Mestrado em Ciência da Computação) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2008.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/jspui/handle/123456789/17990In this work we propose a technique that uses uncontrolled small format aerial images, or SFAI, and stereohotogrammetry techniques to construct georeferenced mosaics. Images are obtained using a simple digital camera coupled with a radio controlled (RC) helicopter. Techniques for removing common distortions are applied and the relative orientation of the models are recovered using projective geometry. Ground truth points are used to get absolute orientation, plus a definition of scale and a coordinate system which relates image measures to the ground. The mosaic is read into a GIS system, providing useful information to different types of users, such as researchers, governmental agencies, employees, fishermen and tourism enterprises. Results are reported, illustrating the applicability of the system. The main contribution is the generation of georeferenced mosaics using SFAIs, which have not yet broadly explored in cartography projects. The proposed architecture presents a viable and much less expensive solution, when compared to systems using controlled picturesapplication/pdfAcesso AbertoMosaico GeorreferenciadoImagens aéreas de pequeno formatoEstéreo-FotogrametriaHelicóptero aeromodeloSistemas de informação geográficaGeorreferenced mosaicsSmall format aerial imagesRC-HelicopterStereo-PhotogrammetryGISConstrução de mosaicos georreferenciados usando imagens aéreas de pequeno formatomasterThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::CIENCIA DA COMPUTACAO::SISTEMAS DE COMPUTACAO
