This article examines the extraction of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) from QuickBird stereo image pairs without the use of ground
control points (GCPs). Due to the frequent unavailability of ground control points, a DEM generation method requiring no GCPs would
be of significant interest to users of stereo data. The article also explores the refinement of extracted DEMs by applying
horizontal shifts based on reference DEMs from the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM).
