Does anyone know if there already is a procedure doing stereo triangulation out there? That would be great, 'cause it looks really complicated. I wouldn't know how to programm something like this.

My procedure is not based on triangulation, but on area image matching (3-level pyramids). If this helps, let me know.

That sounds interesting. I've heard of the 3-level pyramids, but I thought that you could just use that as some kind of stereo-matcher. So how exactly do you calculate any height information? (Btw, coincidentally my research is also aboout volcanic ash cloud top height ;-))
