A Stereo Matching Method for 3D Image Measurement of Long-Distance Sea Surface

Tsunamis are some of the most destructive natural disasters. Some proposed tsunami measurement and arrival prediction systems use a limited number of instruments, then judge the occurrence of the tsunami, forecast its arrival time, location and scale. Since there are a limited number of measurement...
