Georegistration of Imagery from Unmanned Aircraft Systems Using Ada
December 2009
Ricky E. Sward, The MITRE Corporation
ABSTRACT
As Unmanned Aircraft Systems are used for an increasing number
of applications, the challenge of precisely locating the geospatial
position of imagery coming from the UAS is becoming more
crucial. Through work that has been done in conjunction with the
US Air Force Academy, Ada has been used to calculate the
position and size of UAS imagery based on field-of-view
calculations and elevation data. This paper describes the work
that has been done this past year to georegister UAS imagery and
how Ada has been used previously for this challenging task.
