This paper addresses the seeking of an identification algorithm for image target fitting UAV features to increase the efficiency of image identification according to the characteristics of UAV that the image information captured is huge and the real-time processing requirement is high.SIFT algorithm has good accuracy and robustness and can overcome some effect of image deformation and occlusion,but it is still hard to achieve real-time processing of UAV images.In the paper we use simplified Forstner operator to improve SIFT algorithm,reduce the computation of feature point recognition process in it.Through the simulation experiment,it proves that the improved SIFT algorithm can raise the accuracy and matching speed of the identification,meet the requirements of UAV in its target identification precision and speed in complicated background.
