This is a sequence of images from a drone in the forest:

The drone flies very slowly compared to the acquisition rate of 30
frames per second. This makes it much easier to observe the trajectory
and visible depth. The successive images in the sequence are highly
correlated. It is not necessary to frequently reset the reference image
selection over time, as the correlation between this image and
subsequent images remains well above the 60% threshold chosen for
resetting.

Best regards,
