In normal images, which resampled according to epipolar geometry, all of spatial displacements of points in the space of stereo images occur only in one direction of the digital image coordinate system. This prominent characteristic makes normalized imagery as an important prerequisite for many photogrammetric activities such as image matching, automatic aerial triangulation, automatic digital elevation model and orthophoto generation, and stereo viewing. In this paper, a novel approach for epipolar resampling of linear pushbroom satellite imagery is proposed based on Orbital Parameters Model (OPM). The proposed method is developed based on modifying the exterior orientation parameters of OPM in the object space. The most prominent advantage of this method is the capability of the correction of off-nadir viewing of the sensor through the physical interpretation of its parameters. Also, there is the capability of implementation of the proposed method by means of other common physical or interpolative mathematical models used in geometric correction of satellite imagery. According to the results, the average reminded vertical parallax x in the digital image coordinate system is determined 0.73 pixels with respect to the independent check points that demonstrates the high performance of the proposed method
