ABSTRACT
Stereoscopic imaging systems are extensively applied in photogrammetry, entertainment and machine vision. In the field of digital photogrammetry, stereo image pairs are used to generate DEM or DTM. However, a mass of image data bring a challenge to image storage and transmission. Especially, how to cater to the capacity of wireless channel for those stereo sensors set on satellites is a strenuous task. Compression techniques are usually used to solve the problem. And stereo image compression technique has received many researchers’ attention.
