Abstract:The traditional geometric correction of airborne optoelectronic platform relies on the control points and is not realtime,and is not benefit for realizing automatic correction.This work realizes the geometric correction process of distorted image completed by internal and external parameters when lacking control points. Based on the MATLAB camera calibration toolbox and inertial navigation systems,the projection matrix consisting of the camera′s internal and external parameters is obtained.The verification of the image′s correction is captured by the same camera,using experimental data which are already made.The experimental results indicate that the distorted image has been effectively restored.The mean square deviation of image correction is about 0.996 3 pixels when the accuracy of attitude angle is 0.05°.Overall,the proposed method is timeefficient,direct,accurate,and easy to achieve transplantation in hardware.This method has fine validity in engineering applications.
