Les corrections géométriques [...] visent l'amélioration de la qualité des données par une réduction du bruit (de nature spatiale) contenu dans les données, [c'est-à-dire] toute déformation qui peut masquer l'information d'intérêt. Entrent dans cette catégorie toutes les corrections géométriques liées à la géométrie interne du capteur, à la géométrie de visée et aux paramètres d'acquisition qui ne demandent pas d'informations externes au système. [Ces corrections visent] la transformation des données brutes en mesures de positions des objets détectés. [Cette transformation] ne pourra [...] se faire que par l'établissement d'un lien formel avec un référentiel spatial, une carte existante par exemple. C'est une forme d'étalonnage géométrique. 4, record 1, French, - correction%20g%C3%A9om%C3%A9trique
