Zusammenfassung:A method is provided for augmenting video feed obtained by a camera of a aerial vehicle to a user interface. The method can include obtaining a sequence of video images with or without corresponding sensor metadata from the aerial vehicle; obtaining supplemental data based on the sequence of video images and the sensor metadata; correcting an error in the sensor metadata using a reconstruction error minimization technique; creating a geographically-referenced scene model based on a virtual sensor coordinate system that is registered to the sequence of video images; overlaying the supplemental information onto the geographically-referenced scene model by rendering geo-registered data from a 3D perspective that matches a corrected camera model; creating a video stream of a virtual representation from the scene from the perspective of the camera based on the overlaying; and providing the video stream to a UI to be render onto a display.
