Abstract
A novel indirect building localization technique based on a prominent solid landmark from a forward-looking infrared imagery is proposed to localize low, deeply buried, or carefully camouflaged buildings in dense urban areas. First, the widely used effective methods are applied to detect and localize the solid landmark. The building target is then precisely indirectly localized by perspective transformation according to the imaging parameters and the space constraint relations between the building target and the solid landmark. Experimental results demonstrate this technique can indirectly localize buildings in dense urban areas effectively.
