trary, in the semianalytical method, those rotations are computed according to
the condition that the left taking point of the model and at least two points on the
ground model fit in the positions determined in the preceding model.
Let us suppose, in fact, we know the instrumental coordinates of the taking points
and that, once determined, they should not vary during the execution of a whole
strip. The models are formed with a relative symmetric orientation, using the para
meters cp 1( cp 2 , x 1; x 2 and co x (or oo 2 ). The models so formed evidently have an arbi
trary scale and angular position, but it is evident that the relative position of the
model and of the taking points is the same that the ground and the taking points
had at the moment of the shoot of the stereogram.
Let us read in each model the instrumental coordinates of some transfer points,
at least two in the preceding model and two in the successive one.
In each model we have to compute 7 unknowns, for the calculation of the
absolute orientation.
Let us suppose, now, that the first model of the strip has three known points
or, at least, the three coordinates of 2 points and the height of another point.
Then, we shall write 7 equations and, by solving them, we shall obtain the 7 requi
red orientation parameters.
If we indicate by capital letters the ground coordinates and by small letters the
model coordinates, and introduce the coordinates relative to the barycenters G
and g of the ground and of the instrumental points, the equations are evidently of
the type :
