Abstract
A method and system for generating high resolution photogrammetric images from a CCD camera. The method of the invention includes the steps of a) acquiring sequential images of terrain from a moving vehicle with a partially masked CCD camera having n uniformly staggered registers exposed at any given time; b) establishing the position of said vehicle; and c) processing the output of said camera to obtain a database of improved resolution data. Thus, an illustrative and more efficient system and method are provided for generating high resolution photogrammetric image data from a CCD camera.
