In this paper, a computer vision based volume measurement system for rail tanker is proposed. Considering the complex environment, we propose an accurate identification algorithm of coded point and a precise localization algorithm. By investigating the epipolar geometry among three views, this paper develops a novel method for metric reconstruction of a scene based on the trilinear relations. Through the method of ordering incomplete scattered data presented, we construct a series of cross-section contours for a tanker and achieve a precise reconstruction of the surface of the tanker. Experiments show that, the volume measurement method for rail tanker based on computer vision can be operated with simplicity and high accuracy.
