employed, which can accelerate the calculation by reducing
the number of iterations, to some extent; (b) two more strin-
gent convergence conditions guaranteeing strictly descend-
ing integer-step-size sequences are employed to ensure the
fast convergence of the iterative process; and (c) a sequential
search together with a linear interpolation is used in the fine
search stage to replace the inefficient and unreliable iterative
process. The experimental results with nearly 100 flight strips
captured by three different Leica
ADS
80 scanners, and in vari-
ous flight conditions, confirm the superior performance of the
proposed algorithm over the previous methods, in terms of
both efficiency and robustness.
