Popis: | We present a navigation technique for a lunar vehicle based upon matching horizon imagery with a database of synthetic panoramas generated from ultra-high resolution topographic models created by stereophotoclinometry. We conducted two tests, one with lunar topography and fully synthetic panoramas, and another using Earth-based data and no synthetic images. We have shown that the horizon matching technique can search a wide area for a vehicle's location and determine that location to within six meters using readily available imagery.
