The project, which falls under the National Research Priority of safeguarding Australia, will be of significant national and community benefit. The research outcomes will advance close-range photogrammetry (CRP) technology, especially in the critical areas of defence and national security. It will lower the cost base of CRP and expand its commercial potential in new application domains, thus promoting business activity in the broader Australian spatial information industry. Also, community oriented benefits will be seen through the improved prospects for new public-good applications of CRP, ranging for example from cultural heritage recording through to homeland security and forensic measurement for crime scene analysis.Read moreRead less
Simultaneous localisation and image fusion for robotic explorations. Australia has played a leading role in the field of autonomous system research that s becoming increasingly prevalent in industrial applications such as environment monitoring, remote sensing, and battlefield intelligence. Unstructured and landmark-deficient operating conditions impose significant challenges in achieving accurate mapping and localisation. This research will develop a framework for image-based mapping and fusion ....Simultaneous localisation and image fusion for robotic explorations. Australia has played a leading role in the field of autonomous system research that s becoming increasingly prevalent in industrial applications such as environment monitoring, remote sensing, and battlefield intelligence. Unstructured and landmark-deficient operating conditions impose significant challenges in achieving accurate mapping and localisation. This research will develop a framework for image-based mapping and fusion, thus contributing to the key enabling technologies for autonomous systems. The outcomes of this project will contribute to the current international leadership of Australia in this fast-evolving technology.Read moreRead less
