N2 - In this paper, we compare the geometrical performance between the rigorous sensor model (RSM) and rational function model (RFM) in the sensor modeling of FORMOSAT-2 satellite images. For the RSM, we provide a least squares collocation procedure to determine the precise orbits. As for the RFM, we analyze the model errors when a large amount of quasi-control points, which are derived from the satellite ephemeris and attitude data, are employed. The model errors with respect to the length of the image strip are also demonstrated. Experimental results show that the RFM is well behaved, indicating that its positioning errors is similar to that of the RSM.
