Abstract

A video sequence of a field of view within an environment is received. Targets are detected in the video sequence. Target geo-positional information is received. Correspondences between the targets detected in the video sequence and the target geo-positional information are determined and used to calibrate the camera and to geo-register a field of view of the camera.
