Abstract

A method is provided, which comprises generating at least three images of an area of interest from at least one imaging system, the generated images being provided from at least three different angles, establishing point correspondence between the provided images. The method further involves generating at least two sets of three-dimensional information based on the provided images, wherein the at least two sets of three-dimensional information are generated based on at least two different combinations of at least two of the at least three provided images of the area of interest. The method further includes comparing the at least two sets of three-dimensional information so as to determine discrepancies, and providing information related to the imaging system or errors in the images based on the determined discrepancies.
