Derenyi E.E. Orientation of continuous-strip imagery

Photogrammetric Engineering. — 1973, December. — Vol. 39. — No 2. — P. 1329-1335.Three schemes are suggested for the relative orientation of continuous-strip imageries produced by stereo systems: (1) line-to-line orientation method, in which two lines of corresponding points are oriented relatively: (2) section-to-section method, in which the strip is subdivided into sections and it is assumed that orientation elements remain constant within such a section; and (3) triple-channel recording scheme which presupposes that three sets of images are recorded simultaneously, one of which is a vertical view of the terrain and the other two are taken at diverging angles. The third scheme provides the most promising solution; however, an appropriate sensor package needs to be designed and constructed.
