Airplane Pose Measurement from Image Sequences

A method for airplane pose measurement is proposed. During airplane flying, optical-electric phototheodolite has been used to track airplane and at same time acquire image sequence. Based on these images, a method for airplane pose measurement from image sequence is deeply studied from the view of photogrammetry and projective geometry. A novel idea, Parapoint Feedback Iteration, is been presented at first time and used in airplane pose measurement. Experiment results show its high accuracy and reliability.
