Abstract
A camera is used in a photogrammetric analytical measurement, performing photography at each photographing position, and has a relative-position-detecting system for three-dimensionally detecting a relative-positional relationship between different photographing positions. The relative-position-detecting system is associated with a three-dimensional coordinate system, defined in the camera, such that an origin of the three-dimensional coordinate system is situated at a back principal point of the camera, and is constituted so as to detect the relative-positional relationship between the different photographing positions, with respect to the three-dimensional coordinate system.
