Abstract

To effectively realize the image feature matching for geomorphic reverse measurement and rebuilding, a new matching scheme is presented, where the SIFT method are adopted to implement initial geomorphic image matching by going through five stages: Scale-space construction, Scale-space extrema detection, Orientation assignment, Keypoint descriptor and feature vector matching. Then, in order to eliminate the wrong matching features existing in the initial matching process, RANSAC algorithm is applied. The experimental results show that this algorithm can effectively improve the accuracy and efficiency of geomorphic image matching.
