Automated reconstruction of exterior orientation of the Mars'94 HRSC and WAOSS imagery

The High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) and the Wide-Angle Optoelectronic Stereo Scanner (WAOSS) are 3-line scanners to be flown on board the Russian Mars'94 spacecraft. The reconstruction of their position and attitude (exterior orientation) is an essential task for further photogrammetric processing procedures such as the generation of digital terrain models and orthoimages. The paper presents an approach for automated reconstruction of exterior orientation of HRSC and WAOSS imagery.<<ETX>>
