Kshitij, As suggested you should plan to allow user to select the algorithm for key point detection and matching. I'll explain how to do that later. But essentially you may get some input from the user to change the default algorithm to something else. So, all the steps should be done

Hello Again, @Dimitriy - Currently the GDALComputeMatchingPoints is using the SimpleSurf algorithm for matching points. Are you proposing that, I should implement the BRISK and then provide user the option of using either this or SimpleSurf(already implemented)? This is indeed a very interesting

I have done something like this recently. You would be better off tearing out SURF linking to OpenCV for all feature detection and extraction. Here is a link to the patch that OpenCV needs to support large 16 bit imagery. https://github.com/Itseez/opencv/pull/1932 ~Seth via iPhone On Mar

Also, I wouldn't worry much about the multispectral part of the data. You're going to have more trouble with reliably finding the correct key point matches. Use RANSAC, also in OpenCV. ~Seth via iPhone On Mar 15, 2014, at 12:50 PM, Kshitij Kansal kansa...@gmail.com wrote: Hello Again,
