Book Small Format Aerial Photography

Download or read book Small Format Aerial Photography written by James S. Aber and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the need for geographical data rapidly expands in the 21st century, so too do applications of small-format aerial photography for a wide range of scientific, commercial and governmental purposes. Small-format Aerial Photography (SFAP) presents basic and advanced principles and techniques with an emphasis on digital cameras. Unmanned platforms are described in considerable detail, including kites, helium and hot-air blimps, model airplanes, and paragliders. Several case studies, primarily drawn from the geosciences, are presented to demonstrate how SFAP is actually used in various applications. Many of these integrate SFAP with ground-based investigations as well as conventional large-format aerial photography, satellite imagery, and other kinds of geographic information. Full-color photographs throughout Case studies from around the globe Techniques presented allow for image resolution impossible to match via traditional aerial photography or satellite datasets Glossary clarifies key terms

Book Digital Airborne Camera

Download or read book Digital Airborne Camera written by Rainer Sandau and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-12-10 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital airborne cameras are now penetrating the fields of photogrammetry and remote sensing. Due to the last decade’s results in research and development in the fields of for instance detector technology, computing power, memory capacity position and orientation measurement it is now possible to generate with this new generation of airborne cameras different sets of geometric and spectral data with high geometric and radiometric resolutions within a single flight. This is a decisive advantage as compared to film based airborne cameras. The linear characteristic of the opto-electronic converters is the basis for the transition from an imaging camera to an images generating measuring instrument. Because of the direct digital processing chain from the airborne camera to the data products there is no need for the processes of chemical film development and digitising the film information. Failure sources as well as investments and staff costs are avoided. But the effective use of this new technology requires the knowledge of the features of the image and information generation, its possibilities and its restrictions. This book describes all components of a digital airborne camera from the object to be imaged to the mass memory device. So the image quality influencing processes in nature are described, as for instance the reflection of the electromagnetic sun spectrum at the objects to be imaged and the influence of the atmosphere. Also, the essential features of the new digital sensor system, their characteristics and parameters, are addressed and put into the system context. The complexity of the cooperation of all camera components, as for instance optics, filters, detector elements, analogue and digital electronics, software and so forth, becomes transparent. The book includes also the description of example systems.

Book Registration of Digitized Aerial Photography with a Digital Map Data Base

Download or read book Registration of Digitized Aerial Photography with a Digital Map Data Base written by Franz W. Leberl and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report investigates the feasibility of automatic registration of a digital aerial image with an existing map data bank. The geometry of an aerial image can be modelled mathematically by a central perspective. The theoretical part presents the background of this model and discusses various strategies to solve the problem of resection in space. We propose a method to automatically recognize areal features of the map in the image and to extract control points for the reconstruction of the imaging configuration. Recognition is done by three algorithms: by correlation, by thresholding and by adaption of a binary mask. Results give estimates for the distance of projected features from actual objects, dislocations caused by variation of the transformation parameters and include experiments performed with an actual aerial photograph.
