Lesson Objectives:
• Aerial Triangulation:
The process of determining the X, Y and
Z ground coordinates of individual points
based on photo
coordinate measurements.
The procedure can be applied to
terrestrial photos as well as aerial photos.
7.1.1 Introduction
Aerial Triangulation:
In recent years with improved
photogrammetric equipment and
techniques, accuracies to which
ground coordinates can be determined by
these procedures have become very high.
Aerial triangulation is used extensively for
many purposes.
7.1.2 The Usage of Aerial
Triangulation
Extending or densifying ground control strips or
blocks of photos for use in subsequent
photogrammetric operations.
2 Most of the work is done under Limited control point for stereo
laboratory conditions, thus model.
minimizing delays and hardships
due to adverse weather conditions.
