With the continuous development of big data visualization application, geographic information visualization has also been paid more and more attention. As the terminal link of geographic data application, the visualization of geographic information not only aims to achieve better presentation, but also aims to more simply and intuitively display the rules in spatial distribution, and to mine deeper information. In the geographic information system, image data is an important basis for geographic information display and analysis. However, due to the influence of many factors such as imaging characteristics of sensors, atmospheric conditions, terrain undulations, and flight attitude of satellites or planes, the obtained geographic images often have problems such as geometric distortion and radiation error. These problems will cause the position of geographic features in the image to be inaccurate, the shape to be distorted, and the color and brightness to be abnormal, which seriously affects the accuracy and reliability of geographic information display, and makes the geographic analysis, monitoring, planning and other applications based on images unable to obtain accurate results.

The existing geometric correction method has poor correction effect for images under complex terrain conditions, and it is difficult to accurately correct the geometric distortion caused by terrain undulations. The radiation correction method has poor adaptability to changes in atmospheric conditions, and cannot accurately eliminate the influence of atmospheric scattering and absorption on the radiation characteristics of the image, thereby reducing the accuracy and reliability of the geographic image.

[0029] S3, using a method combining polynomial transformation and collinearity equation to perform geometric correction on the geographic control point data and the digital elevation model data acquired by the image, first, using the geographic control point data to establish a polynomial transformation model, and performing preliminary geometric correction on the image to eliminate general geometric deformation caused by changes in sensor imaging posture, flight height, etc.; then, combining the digital elevation model data, and performing accurate correction on the geometric deformation in the image caused by terrain relief based on the collinearity equation, and calculating the correct position under ideal imaging conditions for each pixel point in the image according to its corresponding elevation value according to the collinearity equation, thereby realizing effective correction of the geometric deformation of the image under complex terrain conditions.

[0030] S4, the acquired atmospheric parameter data is radiometrically corrected, and a method based on a radiation transmission model is used to perform radiometric correction on the acquired atmospheric parameter data.

Then, the acquired atmospheric parameter data is input into the radiation transmission model, the scattering, absorption and other effects of the atmosphere on solar radiation are calculated, and then the required radiometric correction coefficient is obtained. Finally, the radiometric correction coefficient is used to correct the radiometric brightness value of each pixel point of the image, eliminate the influence of atmospheric condition changes on the radiometric characteristics of the image, and make the radiometric brightness of the image more truly reflect the actual reflection or emission characteristics of the ground.

[0031] S5, the preprocessed geographic image data is fused with the image after geometric correction and radiometric correction, a wavelet transform-based image fusion method is used to fully retain the useful information of each data and improve the information quantity and clarity of the image.
