Abstract

Reconstruction of submerged targets from multiple views (called multi-look imaging or MLI) is a technology adapted from machine vision and tomographic imaging whose utility is emerging in airborne battlefield surveillance applications. In summary, MLI integrates a sufficient number of views that may have different portions of a target or scene visible. The integration process is designed to support semi- automatic derivation of a solid model that portrays an imaged target or scene. This approach is advantageous for target and feature location, especially in the presence of partial obscuration due to turbid optical media, overlying cover, or occlusion by other target objects.
