Abstract
Map annotations (such as lettering) normally degrade automatic map-to-image optical correlation system performance which when removed, improves both the SNR and accuracy of such systems when generating conjugate data point pairs between the two optical formats. This paper describes improvements to the map-to-image correlation that results when an annotation removal preprocessor filter is applied first to map data. Specifically, the paper describes the impact of implementing a neural network annotation filter on the performance of map-to-image optical correlation systems. This new filter is capable of automatically identifying and then removing annotations before performing the optical correlation. As shown, this removal process impacts the correlation SNR and phase-only filtering systems. Greatest improvement in system performance is achieved when the annotation filter is applied first to map data before implementing a binary, phase-only filtering process.
