NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline solved examples

This is a repository of image and camera datasets, together with processing recipes and produced terrain models using the NASA Ames Stereo Pipeline. The goal is to have a handful of representative and self-contained examples to give users a chance to practice running the tools. For more examples, see the documentation.

Two-image stereo

• ASTER - a good introductory example for creating terrain models with publicly available Earth images and RPC cameras.
• Dawn - a small and simple example using the Dawn Framing Camera with images of asteroid Vesta.
• LRO NAC - an example for the Moon using the LRO NAC linescan camera.
• LRO WAC - an example for the Moon using the LRO WAC pushframe camera.
• Mini-RF - a more exotic example for the Moon using the Mini-RF Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) instrument.

Rig calibration and mesh creation

• Rig calibrator - an example of using the rig_calibrator program in ASP to calibrate a rig of three cameras.
• ISS mesh creation - an example of running pairwise stereo on a set of images acquired on the International Space Station and creating a textured mesh.
• MSL mesh - an example of running pairwise stereo and creation of a fusion mesh using MSL Curiosity rover images.
• MSL CSM - an example of creating and using CSM camera models for the MSL Curiosity rover.
