Investigation on the automatic geo-referencing of archaeological UAV photographs by correlation with pre-existing ortho-photos [PDF]
We present a method for the automatic geo-referencing of archaeological photographs captured aboard unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), termed UPs. We do so by help of pre-existing ortho-photo maps (OPMs) and digital surface models (DSMs).
