We present unaided visual 3D pose estimation and map reconstruction using bundle adjustment on stereo data from ground and airborne platforms.

We outline some of the issues specific to airborne platforms and how they have been overcome.

We have generated consistent pose estimates for publicly available ground-based stereo datasets and those generated from our own ground and airborne platforms.[1] N. Cornelis, B. Leibe, K. Cornelis, L. Van Gool, 3D Urban Scene Modelling Integrating Recognition and Reconstruction, International Journal of Computer Vision, 78:121-141, 2008

Airborne/ground pose estimate results
