Throughout the last decade forensic scientists, technicians and police have employed a number of 3D measurement tools for crime scene and accident reconstruction. These have ranged from the basic, such as EDM instruments, to the complex, namely terrestrial laser scanners. In the field of traffic accident reconstruction, close-range photogrammetry is now being adopted, primarily because of the g...

In this work we tried to solve some non-linear problems of analytic photogrammetry. These problems are also widely flowed into the digital photogrammetry. The model formation considering the solution of the Relative Orientation, and the object reconstruction considering the solution of the Absolute Orientation have non-linear functional models. These models need an exhaustive research of the pr...

Improvements and new developments in the fields of sensor and computer technology have had a major impact on photogrammetry. Nowadays a variety of cameras and photogrammetric systems is available. The application of a S-VHS camcorder together with a system for Digital Photogrammetry and Architectural Design in architectural photogrammetry is demonstrated on a practical object. The imaging syste...

Photogrammetry provides spatial and descriptive information from imagery that can be used in countless applications, including ortho-image production, map creation, construction planning, and military reconnaissance. The type of cameras traditionally used for these various applications were large format analog cameras. In recent years, however, the use of digital cameras for photogrammetric pur...

The need for surveying and recording the cultural property is increasing every day and is demanding proper answers from experts and scientists. The answer to such a problem must be based in the use of photogrammetry and other new technologies whose use must be widely extended. Experts in such technics are not enough in number for solving the problem. This means that they can’t take on their sho...

In order to solve the restriction of the two common calibration modes applied in digital close-range industrial photogrammetry, a new camera calibration method based on orientation points was proposed. Firstly, image sequences were obtained applying a calibration plate with five orientation points. The ellipse detection criteria were applied to eliminate the redundant information from images af...

Surveying and representation of archaeological sites and objects represents today a very interesting contest where the potentialities of the new digital technologies of Geomatics can be fruitfully expressed. The tackled problems span from the data acquisition and integration processes to the automatic or semi-automatic data handling, or to new methods for data representation and exploration. On...

The accuracy of object reconstruction was tested with two medium format cameras made by ALPA of Switzerland. Both cameras have been equipped with a 33 megapixel Leaf Aptus 75 digital camera back and a 47 mm focal length Schneider Apo-Digitar lens. The first test was carried out with the lens in “normal” position. In the second test, the principal point of another Apo-Digitar lens type was decen...

In this study, this researcher designed the routine of image analysis with object concept, so as to increase the efficiency of displacement interpretation of structure by digital image analysis. For the hierarchical connection performance of analysis routine, this researcher formed the constant attribute of objectification of photogrammetry process by constituting the classes such as target loc...

Digital orthophoto is an image where the relief displacements and the camera's tilt have been removed. So it is an efficient, inexpensive and accurate approach for purposes such as evaluation, analysis or measurement of the objects presented in the images. For this reason digital orthophoto has occupied an important place in spatial database in GIS. The traditional orthophoto is based on Digita...
