Abstract: Image localization and image registration techniques are the mostly used by the researchers for searching image in specified place. Google earth image searching is required for localization and analysis of specific area over the areal image. This type of searching is useful for calculating the area of solar rooftop in any specific location like Jalgaon city. Within the range of city, it is required to get snap shots of areal images within which rooftop is required to search. This project is proposed for the search of template area over the areal map area. We have designed the algorithm, in which input is Latitude and Longitude of the specific location and the template of image say (roof top of a building) to be searched at that specific location and the output of the algorithm is the localization of the template area over big areal image. To identify the Latitude and Longitude of the specific area, various apps are available which provides the information about Latitude and Longitude by providing the area name. This information is useful to this algorithm for localization of the specific area. The challenges are 1) to get the Google earth image based on the Latitude and Longitude 2) and template registration on the Google map image. We used MATLAB R2009a for getting Google earth image specific to the given Latitude and Longitude. And 2-D cross-correlation is proposed for registration of template on the Google map image.
