Abstract

The class conveys the basics of photogrammetry. Its aim is to equip students with an understanding of the principles, methods and applications of image-based 3D measurement.

Objective

The aim is an understanding of the principles, methods and possible applications of photogrammetry. The course also forms the basis for more in-depth studies and self-reliant photogrammetric project work in further photogrammetry-related courses.

Content

The basics of photogrammetry, its products and applications: the principle of image-based triangulation; digital aerial cameras and related sensors; projective geometry; mathematical modelling, calibration and orientation of cameras; photogrammetric reconstruction of points and lines, and stereoscopy; orthophoto generation; digital photogrammetric workstations; recording geometry and flight planning
