Various researchers in Digital Image processing have developed keen interest in the automation of object detection, description and extraction process used for various applications and this has led to the development of series of Feature detection and extraction models one of which is the Maximally Stable Extremal Regions Feature Algorithm (MSER). This paper investigates the robustness of MSER algorithm (a blob-like and affine-invariant feature detector) for the detection and extraction of corresponding features used for the automatic registration of series of overlapping images. The robustness investigation was carried out in three different registration campaigns using overlapping images extracted from google earth and image pair acquired from an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Sum of Square Difference (SSD) and Bilinear interpolation models were used to establish the similarity measure between the images to be registered, resampling of the pixel-values and computation of non-integer coordinates respectively while Random Sampling Consensus (RANSAC) algorithm was used to exclude the outliers and to compute the transformation matrix using affine transformation function.
