description Apparatus and methods for enhancing the accuracy of height above ground measurements in which the registration error between successive images taken of the terrain over which an aircraft is flying is minimized, the earlier image having first been transformed according to measurements of the aircraft linear and angular velocities, the focal length and attitude of the image sensor, and an initial, coarse height estimate. By an iterative process, a more accurate height estimate is obtained.
