As remote sensing image registration plays a quite important role in remote sensing image processing. Researchers are searching for an image registration method with high accuracy. In this paper, an automatic method for satellite image co-registration was proposed. This proposed approach got the candidate points on the reference image by introducing F-test and found out the corresponding points on the image to be registered using spatial correlation technique. After acquiring the ground control point pairs (GCPs), polynomial registration model was tried for the registration. The proposed method was applied to the satellite images
