NAME

photo.init - Interactively creates or modifies entries in a camera initial exposure station file for imagery group referenced by a sub-block.

KEYWORDS

imagery, orthorectify

SYNOPSIS

photo.init
photo.init help
photo.init group=name [--verbose] [--quiet]

Parameters:

group=name

Name of imagery group for ortho-rectification

DESCRIPTION

Aerial photographs may be either vertical or oblique. Vertical photographs can be truly vertical (nadir), or slightly tilted (less than 3 degree from the vertical). Usually aerial photos are tilted to some degree. We refer to the term vertical photograph up to a tilt of 3 degree.
Oblique aerial photographs are purposely taken with an angle between 3 and 90 degree from the nadir direction.

The use of photo.init (menu 6) is only required when rectifying a tilted or oblique aerial photo.

photo.init creates or modifies entries in a camera initial exposure station file for imagery group referenced by a sub-block. These entries include: the (XC,YC,ZC) standard (e.g. UTM) approximate coordinates of the camera exposure station; initial roll, pitch, and yaw angles (in degrees) of the cameras attitude; and the a priori standard deviations for these parameters. During the imagery program, photo.rectify, the initial camera exposure station file is used for computation of the ortho-rectification parameters. If no initial camera exposure station file exist, the default values are computed from the control points file created in <A HREF="photo.2target.html">photo.2target.

The following menu is displayed:

        Please provide the following information

       INITIAL XC: Meters __________

       INITIAL YC: Meters __________

       INITIAL ZC: Meters __________

       INITIAL omega (roll) degrees: __________

       INITIAL phi (pitch) degrees: __________

       INITIAL kappa (yaw) degrees: __________


       Standard Deviation XC: Meters __________

       Standard Deviation YC: Meters __________

       Standard Deviation ZC: Meters __________

       Std. Dev. omega (roll) degrees: __________

       Std. Dev. phi (pitch) degrees: __________

       Std. Dev. kappa (yaw) degrees: __________



        Use these values at run time? (1=yes, 0=no)


     AFTER COMPLETING ALL ANSWERS, HIT <ESC> TO CONTINUE

                  (OR <Ctrl-C> TO CANCEL)

The INITIAL values for (XC,YC,ZC) are expressed in standard (e.g. UTM) coordinates, and represent an approximation for the location of the camera at the time of exposure.


 X: East aircraft position;

 Y: North aircraft position;

 Z: Flight altitude above sea level

The INITIAL values for (omega,phi,kappa) are expressed in degrees, and represent an approximation for the cameras attitude at the time of exposure.


 Omega (roll): Raising or lowering of the wings (turning around the aircraft's axis);

 Phi (pitch): Raising or lowering of the aircraft's front (turning around the wings' axis);

 Kappa (yaw): Rotation needed to align the aerial photo to true north: needs to be denoted as +90 degree for clockwise turn and -90 degree for a counterclockwise turn.

The standard deviations for (XC,YC,ZC) are expressed in meters, and are used as a priori values for the standard deviations used in computation of the ortho rectification parameters.

The standard deviations for (omega,phi,kappa) are expressed in degrees, and are used as a priori values for the standard deviations used in computation of the ortho rectification parameters.

If Use these values at run time? (1=yes, 0=no) is set to 0, the values in this menu are not used.
