Abstract
Subject matter regards generating a 3D point cloud and registering the 3D point cloud to the surface of the Earth (sometimes called “geo-locating”). A method can include capturing, by unmanned vehicles (UVs), image data representative of respective overlapping subsections of the object, registering the overlapping subsections to each other, and geo-locating the registered overlapping subsections.
