Application of Stereo Pipeline Software for Improve Processing Satellite Images Using a Cluster and PBS Programming

Abstract

With the objective of studying the topography of the volcanoes of the city of Arequipa, it was considered to obtain Digital Elevation Models (DEM), for this purpose the generation of a DEM using Stereo Satellite Images and the Stereo Pipeline software was proposed. To reduce the processing time of the images a Cluster was used, shortening the processing time by 67%. The processing time is an important factor to perform the largest number of tests, calculate the DEM and perform the necessary operations at the sub-pixel level. To achieve this, work has been done on the installation, Pipeline software compatibility with the Cluster and PBS programming.
