Abstract: For the lack of position-attitude information, crowdsourcing aerial panoramic imaging is not able to precisely locate and orient in the geographic information space.A perspective transformation-based method of position-attitude calculation is proposed. First of all, the principle of proposed method is illustrated and the calculation scheme is designed. Secondly, spherical panorama model is constructed and “flat-sphere-flat” model transformation is implemented by perspective transformation Meanwhile, iterative reweighted least squares(IRLS) is designed for position and attitude calculation based on the deformation characteristics of model transformation. Finally, feasibility and reliability of the method are experimentally verified by using aerial panoramic images of Zhifang reservoir as a case.

Key words: crowdsourcing aerial panoramic imaging, perspective transformation, IRLS, position-attitude calculation, overseas battlefield environment reconnaissance
