Hi Richard:

It sounds like you are in the world of  manually georeferencing or ortho creation.   This would entail identifying ground control points for each image and processing.

Assuming you do not need all 6000 images at one time, you could tag each image to its central location and then ortho or geo it if it is needed.

Hi Richard,

The Historic England aerial photography team have been working on a similar sort of project which they recently released (see https://historicengland.org.uk/whats-new/news/new-virtual-aerial-map-allows-everyone-to-explore-englands-archaeology-from-the-air/). Perhaps they might be able to provide some advice on how they did it? There's an email address at https://historicengland.org.uk/research/methods/airborne-remote-sensing/.

Cheers!

John.

    Hi Kirk and Charles,

    Thanks for your reply. This is what we know…

    CAMERA:                Wild RC8 and RC10 152mm Focal Length.

    ALTITUDE:                4,560m with Block Adjustments for
    Mountainous areas

    IMAGE OVERLAP:             60% along track 25% side lap and all
    flight line Orientations East – West except for offshore.

    Im afraid though that GPS just wasn’t a thing when these images
    where captured. We have been looking at reverse geotagging the
    Images, that is we know there location…ish and we can convert them
    to jpegs with EXIF values assigned in theory.

    Though the biggest issue is, in talking on the guys on the Open
    Drone Mapper forum, our overlaps aren’t sufficient for SFM, so an
    automated process will be out of the question.

    Once again, thanks for getting back, if you can think of anything
    else, please let me know.

    Regards,


    Richard

    Hi Richard:

    You would require a couple of things:

    1) Camera interior orientation which would include the lens
    calibration

    2) exterior orientation which would include precise coordinate at
    time of exposure as well as the pitch, roll and yaw of the camera.

    3) the offsets from the camera film or sensor center to the center
    of the aircraft gps antenna.

    4) an accurate DEM or your target area

    If you have the above data, you can autoreference your images.

    If the images have a high endlap and sidelap, you could use
    commercial software such as Pix4D or  Global Mapper to
    orthorectify the images based on structure from motion.  Check
    into drone orthorectification software.

        Afternoon all,

        I have access to over 6000 Aerial Images covering Ireland, we
        also have scans of the Flight Paths and Image Orientation and
        Extents (Scans from Paper Maps)

        What I was wondering is if there is a way to Batch
        Georeference all of these Images?

        Any Ideas, help, guidance welcome. I have thought about maybe
        even reverse engineering the Flight Plan, then using
        OpenDroneMap to georeference the Images.

        Regards & Thanks,

        Richard McDonnell
