PRINCIPLE OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY
Aerial Photographs
Terrestrial Photographs
Photographs taken from camera station at a fixed position on or near the
ground is known as…
The photographs are taken by means of a phototheodolite which is
combination of a camera and a theodolite.
Based on the principle that “if the directions of same objects photographed
from two extremities of measured base are known, their position can be
located by the intersection of two rays to the same object.
TERRESTRIAL PHOTOGRAPHS
Construction :
Draw BK perpendicular to NV meeting at K
From similar triangles NVb and NKB,
Scale of Photograph ( SA ) = f
H- h
SCALE OF THE VERTICAL PHOTOGRAPH
This shows, the scale of vertical photographs over the flat terrain is the ratio of
the photo distance to the ground distance.
