[3602]. https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12213602This paper focuses on how the height of a target can be swiftly estimated using images acquired by a digital camera installed into moving platforms, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). A pinhole camera model after distortion compensation was considered for this purpose since it does not need extensive processing nor vanishing lines. The pinhole model has been extensively employed for similar purposes in past studies but mainly focusing on fixed camera installations. This study analyzes how to tailor the pinhole model for gimballed cameras mounted into UAVs, considering camera parameters and flight parameters. Moreover, it indicates a solution that foresees correcting only a few needed pixels to limit the processing overload. Finally, an extensive analysis was conducted to define the uncertainty associated with the height estimation. The results of this analysis highlighted interesting relationships between UAV‐to‐target relative distance, camera pose, and height uncertainty that allow practical exploitations of the proposed approach. The model was tested with real data in both controlled and uncontrolled environments, the results confirmed the suitability of the proposed method and outcomes of the uncertainty analysis. Finally, this research can open consumer UAVs to innovative applications for urban surveillance.Information Management Research Center (MagIC) - NOVA Information Management SchoolNOVA Information Management School (NOVA IMS)RUNTonini, AndreaRedweik, PaulaPainho, MarcoCastelli, Mauro2020-11-16T23:59:19Z2020-11-022020-11-02T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article24application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/107260eng2072-4292PURE: 26406538https://doi.org/10.3390/rs12213602info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-03-11T04:51:57Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/107260Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:40:54.301710Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
