The article ‘ Automated 3D feature matching ’ by Tzu‐Yi Chuang and Jen‐Jer Jaw, published in The Photogrammetric Record , 30(149): 8‐29 and placed online on 12th February 2015 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com) has been retracted by agreement between the authors, the journal Editor (Stuart Granshaw), The Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society, and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. The retraction is due to the inclusion of unattributed material, especially relating to the equations, which have appeared in equivalent forms in previous publications. The basic theory behind the formulation was mainly developed and explicitly formulated in Han ( ), Han ( ), Han et al. ( ), Han and Jaw ( ) and Han et al. ( ). These papers already established in detail similar theory, developing comparable equations necessary for estimating the rotation, scale and translation parameters as proposed in the RSTG approach in the Chuang and Jaw (2015) paper in the The Photogrammetric Record . The use of multiple geometric features and the quality assessment based on distance and angular discrepancies have also been discussed at length in these previous publications. These papers, listed below, should therefore have been cited by the authors to attribute work already published in the literature. ReferencesHan , J. Y. , 2010a .
