Data acquisition for aerotriangulation on the Zeiss P-series analytical plotters

This paper describes the recently developed data acquisition software for aerotriangulation implemented on the Zeiss P-series analytical plotters. Two unique features stand out: automatic check procedures for point identifiers and on-line computations for checking tie points and control points. The adjustment is performed in a block coordinate system to which ground control points and new models are transformed. The status of the computations is displayed. This, together with the points displayed in a graphics window provides the operator in real-time with adequate information about the current status of the aerotriangulation measurement. -from Authors
