Image Coregistration for InSAR processing is a time-consuming procedure that is usually processed in batch mode. With the availability of low-energy GPU accelerators, processing at the edge is now a promising perspective. Starting from the individuation of the most computationally intensive kernels from existing algorithms, we decomposed the cross-correlation problem from a multilevel point of view, intending to design and implement an efficient GPU-parallel algorithm for multiple settings, including the edge computing one.

For this reason, we recently witnessed an impetuous development of devices that integrate sensors and computing resources in a single board to process data directly on the collection place. Due to the particular context where they are used, the main feature of these boards is the reduced energy consumption, even if they do not exhibit absolute computing powers comparable to modern high-end CPUs.
