Abstract
Images are made of a surface, and images are made of a covering (in the form of a reference object) having a pattern that includes an array of locally non-repetitive pattern elements. A three-dimensional models of the pattern elements on the covering is created using the images. A correlation in scaling between the process of generating three-dimensional models of the pattern elements on the covering and the process of generating a three-dimensional model of the surface is known, and this known correlation in scaling and the known actual distances among pattern elements on the covering can be used as a dimensional scale reference to determine dimensional information of the three-dimensional model of the surface.
