Equations (114) and (125) through (128) provide the necessary expressions for
relating dimensions in the object space which are parallel to any of the coordinate
planes. Again, the sign of Loss iv or Le is chosen so as to make 91 positive. Likewise, E e

the sign of Ly7> Lez or Le is chosen so as to make 94 positive.
Concluding Remarks
The foregoing photogrammetric analysis provides a rational basis for extracting
mensural data from single photographs of man-made objects. The treatment has been as
general as possible for a single photograph, notwithstanding that it is limited to
dimensions in planes parallel to the object space coordinate planes. However, it is
found in practice that a great many of the dimensions of interest are dimensions of this
type.

Several operational procedures have been developed from this analysis and have
been successfully applied to a number of problems.
