CLOSE-RANGEPHOTOGRAMMETRY AND 3DIMAGING

This is the second edition of the established guide to close-rangephotogrammetry which uses accurate imaging techniques to analyse the three-dimensional shape of a wide range of manufactured and natural objects.

After more than 20 years of use, close-range photogrammetry, now for the mostpart entirely digital, has become an accepted, powerful and readily availabletechnique for engineers, scientists and others who wish to utilise images to makeaccurate 3D measurements of complex objects. Here they will find thephotogrammetric fundamentals, details of system hardware and software, andbroad range of real-world applications in order to achieve this.

Following the introduction, the book provides fundamental mathematicscovering subjects such as image orientation, digital imaging processing and 3Dreconstruction methods, as well as a discussion of imaging technology,including targeting and illumination, and its implementation in hardware andsoftware. It concludes with an overview of photogrammetric solutions fortypical applications in engineering, manufacturing, medical science,architecture, archaeology and other fields.
