DIGITAL MAPPING SYSTEM AND METHOD USING HIGH-RESOULUTION SATELLITE IMAGES AND RFM

摘要

The present invention relates to a system and method for performing numerical mapping by using the RPC (Rational Polynomial Coefficient) which is a parameter belonging to a Rational Function Model (RFM) provided with a high resolution satellite image. Currently, IKONOS satellite imagery and QuickBird satellite imagery are adopting RFM as sensor model as representative high resolution satellites. These high resolution satellite images do not undergo a facial expression process like conventional aerial photography, and use a method of obtaining 3D coordinates from an RPC provided by a seller providing satellite images.
