Abstract: As the precondition of carring out the target precision strike in the information war era, target location is an important part of information security work. At present, the fast target location is achieved for image registration, but the traditional methods are single image feature registration, the registration result can not be assured, and then the target location precision can be effected. To solve these problems, a fast target location method of the global image registration was proposed, the image registration method based on the combination of spot and corner features was adopted, the target location precision can be assured through measuring the similarity of two feature matching. Finally, the experiment of image registration performance and target location precision was realized which use of aerial remote sensing images. Experiments show that the improved methods are steady and the aerial remote sensing images can be located effectively.
