A system and method for augmenting synthetic vision system (SVS) databases with spectrum diverse features that are matched to the observations of natural scenes derived from non-visible band sensors. The system correlates sensor output with a-priori information in databases to enhance system precision and robustness. Multiple diverse sensors image naturally occurring, or artificial features (towers buildings etc.) and store the multi-spectral attributes of those features within the enhanced multi-spectral database and share the information with other systems. The system, upon “live” observation of those features and attributes, correlates current observations with expected fiducial observations in the multi-spectral database and confirms operation, navigation, precise position, and sensor fidelity to enable autonomous operation of an aircraft employing the system.
