Terrestrial photogrammetry without ground control points
Terrestrial photogrammetry should be the survey technique of choice when updating large scale urban maps and GIS databases, where 3D data and attribute data are required. Its main drawback is the need for Ground Control Points (GCP) to reference the survey.

Reconstructing 3D coastal cliffs from airborne oblique photographs without ground control points [PDF]
Coastal cliff collapse hazard assessment requires measuring cliff face topography at regular intervals. Terrestrial laser scanner techniques have proven useful so far but are expensive to use either through purchasing the equipment or through survey ...

GEOMETRIC CALIBRATION OF ZIYUAN-3 THREE-LINE CAMERAS COMBINING GROUND CONTROL POINTS AND LINES [PDF]
Due to the large biases between the laboratory-calibrated values of the orientation parameters and their in-orbit true values, the initial direct georeferencing accuracy of the Ziyuan-3 (ZY-3) three-line camera (TLC) images can only reach the kilometre ...

Ground Control Point Automatic Extraction for Spaceborne Georeferencing Based on FPGA [PDF]
Feature points that are obtained from the combined speeded-up robust feature (SURF) detector and binary robust independent elementary features (BRIEF) descriptor have a highly robust performance. These points are previously considered the ground control points (GCPs) for building a connection between the image coordinates and the corresponding geodetic

INS-camera calibration without ground control points [PDF]
In this paper we present an approach for performing system calibration of a sensor suite consisting of a fixed mounted camera and an inertial navigation system without the usage of a photogrammetric calibration site. The aim of the presented work is to obtain accurate direct georeferencing of camera images collected with manned or unmanned aerial ...

Accuracy of UAV-based DEMs without ground control points
AbstractUnmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly used in various environmental research projects and other activities that require accurate topography images. The quality of elevation models derived from UAV measurements varies depending on many variables (e.g. UAV equipment used, terrain conditions, etc.).
