Systems and methods for rapid alignment of digital imagery datasets to models of structures

摘要

Systems and methods for aligning digital image datasets to a computer model of a structure. The system receives a plurality of reference images from an input image dataset and identifies common ground control points (“GCPs”) in the reference images. The system then calculates virtual three-dimensional (“3D”) coordinates of the measured GCPs. Next, the system calculates and projects two-dimensional (“2D”) image coordinates of the virtual 3D coordinates into all of the images. Finally, using the projected 2D image coordinates, the system performs spatial resection of all of the images in order to rapidly align all of the images.
