Review of Developments in Geometric Modelling for High Resolution Satellite Pushbroom Sensors

The geometric modelling of satellite imaging sensors is a fundamental step in the photogrammetric processing chain, and becomes crucial in multi-source data fusion and analysis. This paper seeks to report the main characteristics and developments of optical pushbroom sensors for photogrammetric and remote sensing applications, and to provide a critical review of approaches used for their geometric modelling.JRC.G.2-Global security and crisis managemen
