2.1.3 IGN Test Site Amiens<br />

This study site, with a high density of small buildings is located in the city of Amiens in Northern<br />

France. Airborne images were part of a digital acquisition (June 23 rd 2001) using IGN’s digital<br />

camera. The images were in TIFF-format. The ground pixel size is around 25 cm. The main<br />

characteristic of these acquisitions is the large overlap rate (around 80%) between the different<br />

images: each point of the terrain appears on a large number of images. Amiens consists of four strips<br />

with a total of eleven images. Laser acquisition with a density of 4 points per m 2 came from the<br />

TopoSys system. A digitised cadastral map, with 2D description of buildings is in DXF-format.<br />
