Abstract
In image processing computer system for a photogrammetric analytical measurement in which a survey map is produced on the basis of plural pairs of pictures photographed at different positions, each picture features a photographed target. Plural frames of image data for producing the pictures are stored in a memory, and the frames of image data are read from the memory in a given order such that two consecutive frames of image data are handled as a pair of pictures. A monitor displays two pictures side by side, which are rearranged until two pictures displayed side by side form a proper pair for producing a survey map section. It is determined whether respective two pictures displayed side by side are defined as left-hand and right-hand pictures or right-hand and left-hand pictures with respect to the targets photographed thereon, whereby respective left-hand and right-hand pictures in each pair are displayed at left and right sides on the monitor.
