Vertical Aerial PhotographyVertical Aerial Photography ► Most common type aerial photographyMost common type aerial photography► Camera axis as vertical as possibleCamera axis as vertical as possible► Generally a tilt or error introduced in Generally a tilt or error introduced in

photography of 1 – 3 degrees photography of 1 – 3 degrees ► Small amount can be easily adjusted Small amount can be easily adjusted

Geometric Errors of Vertical Geometric Errors of Vertical Aerial Photography Aerial Photography

► Optical distortion Optical distortion   - caused by camera problems   - caused by camera problems

► Tilt Tilt - caused by displacement of the focal plane from - caused by displacement of the focal plane from a truly horizontal position by aircraft motion a truly horizontal position by aircraft motion (attitude) (attitude)

   - image areas on the upper side of the tilt depict - image areas on the upper side of the tilt depict ground features in smaller than the normal scale ground features in smaller than the normal scale

 - about its flight axis  - about its flight axis - roll compensation - roll compensation

► Crab distortion Crab distortion  - caused by deflection of aircraft due to  - caused by deflection of aircraft due to crosswind crosswind - corrections: on the plane or by computer - corrections: on the plane or by computer

► Pitch distortion Pitch distortion  - result in local scale change  - result in local scale change  - can be ignored in most analyses  - can be ignored in most analyses

3. Relief Displacement3. Relief Displacement

► The direction of relief displacement is radial The direction of relief displacement is radial from nadir from nadir

► It increases with (1) increasing height of the It increases with (1) increasing height of the feature and (2) the distance from nadir feature and (2) the distance from nadir
