Abstract:

Video satellites acquire continuous images of targets in a certain time period to dynamically monitor areas of interest in real time. They have become a hot spot in remote sensing satellite development in recent years. In this paper, a survey is given on the development of video satellites and application perspectives of satellite video data. Major challenges facing satellite video are analyzed, focusing on geometric calibration, radiometric calibration, video stabilization, super resolution reconstruction, moving target detection and tracking, 3D reconstruction, and the development trend. Major application fields of satellite video and the future perspectives are discussed.

Key words: satellite video, calibration, stabilization, 3D reconstruction, moving target detection
