to the map such as location of objects. This kind of information
mostly related to GIS of terrain because only attributes of data
are amended to the database.
The main distinguished characteristics of this approach are:
1. This approach is designed, as there is no requirement
for camera calibration without sacrificing precision.
2. The designed navigation is independent from GPS
and INS. Indeed this is a unique navigation method.
This method is independent from GPS and INS which most of
the recent navigation systems are vastly using these systems.
Instead, this method is compiling all images of a terrain to a
map of the terrain (Homainejad 2007), which is already stored
in the computer memory along a GIS of the terrain. An image of
the terrain has been matched to the map so that each part of the
image has been equivalent with its corresponding part on the
map. Therefore, the coordinate of any part of the image can

be directly extracted from the map. The map of the terrain along
a GIS was supplied in purpose to assist improving navigation
and positioning. In addition, a number of targets were
developed in order to improve navigation processing of
dynamic platform. The vision was supplied for the dynamic
platform, will search the targets in order to find the position and
distance of the dynamic platform to the targets, in support of
navigation. Once an unknown object is recognised on the
terrain, the system will define position of the object according
to the map and will consider a rout from the dynamic platform
to the object, so called adopting a strategy, according to the GIS
of the terrain, and then the strategy will transferred to the
second part for implementation. Next chapters will be
discussing the adopted method and strategy in details.
