Automatic Image Mosaic Algorithm for Digital Planetary images - Mohammed Ismail - Bog

Image mosaic relies on image matching and registration. The good image mosaic depends on good acquiring the best match features between images or Sift-points. Images of solar planets suffer from lack of information with low contrast that may influence on good matching as compared to Earth images. A new algorithm is present in this book for planetary image mosaic which alleviates this challenge. First, a program is build to compensate for some of the geometric distortion (rotation and scale effects). Second, an algorithm is submitting for detecting a match Sift-points between images that depends on the morphological operation. A registration with warpping and blending operations is compute to complete the image mosaic. This procedure is test and execute on images of Earth (Landsat 8 oli images).
