Automatic registration of high-resolution remote sensing images (HRRSIs) has always been a severe challenge due to the local deformation caused by different shooting angles and illumination conditions. A new method of characteristic spatial objects (CSOs) extraction and matching is proposed to deal with this difficulty. Firstly, the Mask R-CNN model is utilized to extract the CSOs and their positioning points on the images automatically. Then, an encoding method is provided to encode each object with its nearest adjacent 28 objects according to the object category, relative distance, and relative direction. Furthermore, a code matching algorithm is applied to search the most similar object pairs. Finally, the object pairs need to be filtered by position matching to construct the final control points for automatic image registration. The experimental results demonstrate that the registration success rate of the proposed method reaches 88.6% within a maximum average error of 15 pixels, which is 28.6% higher than that of conventional optimization method based on local feature points. It is reasonable to believe that it has made a beneficial contribution to the automatic registration of HRRSIs more accurately and efficiently.

-In this paper, we propose an orthographic view image generation method based on integral imaging called multiple elemental image mapping. The proposed method is based on matching regions in multiple elemental images, which are generated with different micro-lens from the same area of a 3D object. By mapping all the matching regions to the corresponding orthographic view plane, we can enhance the resolution of the generated orthographic view image. Simulation experiments are carried out, and the results show the resolution of orthographic view image is improved obviously.
