Original Abstract Submitted
The techniques described herein implement an automated frame skipping approach used to generate a reduced set of frames for processing. In one example, the automated frame skipping approach is used to more efficiently generate a stitched map of a geographical area being surveilled by an aerial vehicle, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). A stitched map is an image mosaic that is created using the reduced set of frames such that the geographical area being surveilled by the aerial vehicle is accurately depicted.
