Abstract
Methods and systems for providing an aligned bank of images (e.g. for a panoramic display obtained by a scanning or moving camera) are disclosed that allow updating of the bank of images as new images are obtained; display of the original images stored in the bank as a mosaic according to any desired zoom; determination and display of the best mosaic view for a desired zoom; recall of the original images from the bank; and production of a mosaic that is free of accumulated stitching errors without imposing limitations on the way the camera scans. The methods and systems herein disclosed further have the ability to anchor the bank of images to the actual ground coordinates. The key to the method is inclusion of an iterative self-correcting procedure that reduces the accumulated errors as new images are added to the bank.
