Abstract
A method for the stereophotogrammetric survey of a large-dimension object is provided in which the object and a chain having two reference markers thereon spaced apart at a known distance are photographed from a height of about 30 m with two synchronized metric photographic cameras spaced apart by about 6 m. Depth measurements (Z axis) are made on a stereoscopic model reproduced by a stereoplotter at eight sets of points grouped in the eight conventional perimetral locations of photogrammetric orientation at the crests and troughs of the ripples or undulations of the water or ground, respectively. The mean of the depth measurements is calculated to determine the mean horizontal plane and the model is correctly orientated with respect to the horizontal plane by suitable rotation. The length of the chain is measured between the two reference markers on the orientated model and the ratio of the chain length measured on the model to the known length of the catenary arc between the markers is used to determine the reproduction scale.
