Long-Range UAV Thermal Geo-Localization with Satellite Imagery
Onboard sensors, such as cameras and thermal sensors, have emerged as effective alternatives to Global Positioning System (GPS) for geo-Iocalization in Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) navigation. Since GPS can suffer from signal loss and spoofing problems, researchers have explored camera-based techniques such as Visual Geo-Iocalization (VG) using satellite RGB imagery. …
