Malt

Description

Malt is a simplified interface to MicMac. Currently it can handle matching in ground geometry and ground-image geometry. Ground geometry is adapted when the scene can be described by a single function Z = f (X, Y ) (with X, Y, Z being euclidean coordinates); this case occurs quite often when the scene is relatively flat and the acquisition is made by photo acquired orthogonally to the main plane. The main use cases are: — modelization of facades to generate ortho photo in architecture; — modelization of earth surface from aerial acquisition; Ground image geometry is very general and flexible and can be used in almost all acquisition. Its main drawbacks is that it requires 16 some interaction to select the master images, the mask of these images and the associated secondary images.
