Summary of Methods in Wide-Area Motion Imagery (WAMI)

In the last decade, there have been numerous developments in wide-area motion imagery (WAMI) from the sensor design to data exploitation. In this paper, we summarize the published literature on WAMI results in an effort to organize the techniques, discuss the developments, and determine the state-of-the-art. Using the organization of developments, we see the variations in approaches and relations to the data sets available. The literature summary provides and anthology of many of the developers in the last decade and their associated techniques. In our use case, we showcase current methods and products that enable future WAMI exploitation developments.
