"Mtrack 1.0": A multi-vehicle, deterministic tracking algorithm
As overhead persistent surveillance sensors become more capable at acquiring wide-field image sequences for longer time-spans, the need to exploit such data becomes ever greater. A desirable use of such sensors is to be able to track all the observable vehicles while they persist in the imagery. Typically, this imagery is characterized by lower resolutions (e.g. >= 0.5 m/pixel ) and lower frame rates (e.g. {approx} few Hz). We describe our initial implementation of a multiple-vehicle tracking algorithm for overhead persistent surveillance imagery. Subsequent reports will then present results of applying this tracker to specific persistent surveillance imagery as well as algorithm improvements and extensions for dealing with wider-field imagery.
