    “Photogrammetry is the technique of measuring objects
    from photographs”

    “The art, science and technology of obtaining
    reliable spatial information about physical objects
    and the environment through the processes of
    recording, measuring and interpreting image data”
   Aerial photography is the taking of photographs of the
    ground from an elevated position. The term usually
    refers to images in which the camera is not supported
    by a ground-based structure

   Close-range Photogrammetry the camera is close to the
    subject and is typically hand held or on a tripod

   ORTHOPHOTO GENARATION
   In Aerial Photogrammetry the camera is mounted in an
    aircraft and is usually pointed vertically towards the
    ground

   Multiple overlapping photos of the ground are taken as
    the aircraft flies along a flight path

   These photos are processed in a stereo-plotter
   Adjacent but
    overlapping aerial
    photos are called
    stereo-pairs and
    are needed to
    determine parallax
    and stereo/3D
    viewing

Stereo Image   Vector Data
   There is no common usage of the terms digital
    elevation model (DEM), digital terrain model (DTM) and
    digital surface model (DSM) in scientific literature

   The digital terrain model represents the bare ground
    surface

   The term Digital Elevation Model is often used as a
    generic term for DSMs and DTMs, only representing
    height information without any further definition about
    the surface
   Contour lines are lines drawn on a map connecting
    points of equal elevation

   Contour lines are useful because they allow us to show
    the shape of the land surface (topography) on a map

   This vertical spacing is referred to as the contour
    interval
   If the contour interval is 10 ft. Each the contour lines
    was a multiple of 10 ft.( i.e. 0, 10, 20, 30)

   In areas with high relief the contour interval is usually
    larger
DATA FOR THE 3D CITY MODELS
   The 3D city models contain data, which is related to the
    Spatial objects



   Those objects are generally topography, buildings,
    transportation, plant cover, infrastructure and other
    details related to the goal of application

   3D city models are focused on buildings however it may
    contain roads, green cover, trees etc. according to the
    usage of model

ORTHO PHOTO GENERATION
ORTHO PHOTO GENERATION
   Ortophotos are photographs that have been
    corrected for distortions

   Distortions from the camera lens, and relief

   To use these orthophoto images as a map, it
    is of great importance to provide orthophoto
     images in high level of accuracy

conclusion

3D Representation and Visualization of real world is
only possible with photogrammetry.The output of
photogrammetry is typically a map Many of the
maps      we  use   today    are    created    with
photogrammetry and photographs taken from
aircraft.
