Automated sub-pixel satellite and aerial image co-registration based on AROSICS. Requires Python package 'arosics' (GDAL, NumPy, SciPy, GeoArray). Supports Windows, Linux, and macOS.
COREG_GIS provides automated sub-pixel co-registration and georeferencing of remote sensing imagery in QGIS using the AROSICS engine. Unlike manual georeferencing, COREG_GIS automatically computes tie points using Fourier shift theorem for global affine alignment and local displacement grids for non-linear warping.
Requirements and Dependencies:
- Requires Python package 'arosics' (install via 'pip install arosics' or OSGeo4W Shell).
- Third-party dependencies: GDAL, NumPy, SciPy, GeoArray.
- Supported Platforms: Windows, Linux, macOS.
- Operational Constraints: Input target and reference rasters must have valid Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS) and spatial overlap.
