Fusion of IR/CCD Video Streams and Digital Terrain Models for Multi Target Tracking

: Video Streams of optical camera system are analysed by a video processing software which detects moving objects in the video. They are presented in image pixel coordinates. With the knowledge of the direction of the camera and the field of view this information can be georeferenced using maps of Digital Terrain Elevation Data (DTED). The output are plots in polar coordinates which are processed with a sensor tracker using IMM techniques.
