Traditional registration methods generally assume distortion between images can be described by an uniform transformation model. It’s a tough work to find a proper registration model for high resolution remote sensing images

when the resolution is up to meter or sub-meter

the pixel point displacement caused by hypsography is improper to ignore. In order to resolve the problem

a registration method for high resolution images based on multi-model representation is proposed. In the first period

adjust most of flat area and a global model is constructed; during the second period

local areas with hypsography are corrected and local models are built.Experimental result shows the proposed method is accurate and effective.
