Subject Description

This unit aims to provide students with a clear understanding of the principles of measurement using multiple photographs, including the processes of photogrammetric aerotriangulation, close range network adjustment and camera calibration using test ranges or self-calibration, as well as the associated error analyses. Analytical Photogrammetry: projective transformation by vectors and matrices; comparator measurements and reductions, image coordinate refinement; analytical relative and absolute orientation; systematic and random photogrammetric errors. Aerotriangulation: principles and theory of various methods; error propagation, strip and block adjustment, GPS aerotriangulation. Close Range Digital Photogrammetry: principles and adjustment of multistation photography; advanced camera calibration, additional parameters, self-calibration; engineering and industrial photogrammetry. Digital orthophotographs.

Assessment

Not more than three hours of written examinations and tests, and not more than the equivalent of 40 pages of written assignments and reports on practical work. The relative weighting of the assessment components will be published at the commencement of the subject.
