High altitude photography - Aspects and results
Abstract
The paper outlines the particularities of jet photography and determines the potential for map production with modern instruments on the basis of the results obtained from test field photographs. General aspects of high-altitude photography are examined relative to photographic aircraft used, installation of the camera systems, and high-altitude photographic problems. Results are discussed in terms of geometric accuracy, image quality, and inflight camera inclination. Application of high-altitude photography in topographic mapping is described with respect to aerotriangulation, medium and small scale line maps, and orthophoto mapping.
