at one time or another, mostly with field surveys commissioned 
by the Ministry of Culture which has thus amassed a wealth of 
planar data with no, or sparse, elevation data. Graphical data of 
this type can be well exploited at an extended scale as exclusive 
control information to generate orthomosaics for innumerable 
sites, at least as a basic archival documentation. One may pro- 
ceed by simply deriving planar control points from such 2D in- 
formation and perform a purely planimetric adjustment. The re- 
sulting inaccuracy in absolute orientation, however, could be di- 
minished by exploiting the 3D model elevations with a suitable 
weighting. The results presented here indicate that, in fact, this 
pre-existing information may prove useful in several cases for 
cost-effective approaches of orthophotography by limiting, or 
even eliminating, the need for new field surveys. The aspects of 
archaeological orthoimaging referred to above are discussed and 
illustrated with examples from four different Greek sites. 
2. PHOTOTRIANGULATION 
This is a key issue in archaeological surveys since, for a number 
of reasons already referred to, the questions of performing the 
bundle adjustment and recovering reliable values for the image 
exterior orientation parameters may well not be trivial. Starting 
with interior orientation, it must be pointed out that a full self- 
calibrating bundle adjustment may often be infeasible. This may 
be due to a combination of the limited extension in depth of the 
object, the inaccuracy and low ‘identifiability’ of control points 
(which, more than often, need to be simple natural detail points) 
and the unfavourable strip geometry. Full pre-calibration is one 
way to tackle this problem. However, this is not always practic- 
able. For instance, in each of the four projects which serve here 
as examples a different non-metric camera has been employed 
(all belong to the Department of Surveying & Photogrammetry 
of the Greek Ministry of Culture). 
In case of relatively limited relief, Karras and Mavromati (2001) 
have demonstrated that the use of ‘nominal’ interior orientation 
values (the principal point in an analogue camera is ignored; the 
nominal focal length is used as camera constant) does not affect 
accuracy to a considerable extent. Contrary to this, the effects of 
radial lens distortion may be decisive, particularly in the case of 
wide-angle photography. The correction of this error is capable 
of trebling accuracy. Lens distortion could be modeled through 
bundle adjustment, but may also be estimated separately by em- 
ploying simple techniques of partial pre-calibration, for instance 
using images of straight linear features. This approach has been 
adopted in all examples used here, which form parts of wider 
projects. These are the following: 
e Sparta (parodoi walls of the ancient theatre in Sparta). The 
strip used here consisted of 6 images of mean scale 1:250, taken 
with a medium format Mamiya camera with wide-angle 45 mm 
lens. Recording has been performed with horizontal camera axis 
using a fishing-rod to raise the camera. For the 44 control points 
used, the RMSxyz error of bundle adjustment was 1.6 cm. 
* Aigosthena (eastern facade of the ancient castle in Aigosthe- 
na). Here again a total of 6 images acquired with horizontal axis 
were used. The medium format Fuji camera (45 mm wide-angle 
lens) was raised with a small meteorological balloon to give a 
mean image scale of 1:300. The RMSxvz error for the 68 control 
points used was 1.3 cm. 
* Zea (small ancient theatre in Piraeus). The 4 images used in 
this instance had been acquired vertically, employing the same 
means, with a small format Cannon camera (28 mm wide-angle 
lens). For a mean image scale of 1:1200, the RMSxyz error for 
82 control points was 2.8 cm. 
e Ag. Marina (archaic site in Athens, dedicated to Zeus). The 
7 images selected here had a mean scale of 1:1100 and had been 
acquired vertically as above with a small format Nikon camera 
(28 mm wide-angle lens). The RMSxyz error for the 100 control 
points was 3.7 cm. [This project has been fully documented in 
Karras et al., 1999.] 
To a considerable extent, the satisfactory RMS errors referred to 
above are attributed to the correction of radial distortion. How- 
ever, further aspects of a successful adjustment have also to be 
mentioned. With the means for raising the camera used, ‘flight’ 
planning cannot be fully adhered to, which may result in rather 
unfavourable imaging geometry. In vertical photography, image 
tilt does exist but apparently can be limited below 5?. The pro- 
blem here are mainly the differences AK in rotations about the 
vertical camera axis, which may even exceed 15°. Contrary to 
this, horizontal photography suffers mainly from ¢-tilts about 
the vertical image axis (which in the case of Aigosthena exceed- 
ed 15?). To confront this problem, relatively small stereo-bases 
are required to secure adequate overlap, along with liberal con- 
trol information of sufficient accuracy and tie points determined 
by as many rays as possible. Control and tie points, which often 
are not signalised (as in the examples discussed here), must be 
measured carefully on the image, particularly if significant per- 
spective distortion is present as a consequence of surface relief 
and image tilt. Actually, it is this need for ample ground control 
which has led to investigations, presented in Section 4, regard- 
ing the possibility to exploit pre-existing plans as a source for 
ground control. Finally, the differences in imaging distances are 
also to be kept within certain tolerances (if image resizing and 
processing, for instance, with different camera constants or strip 
segmentation in smaller parts is to be avoided). 
3. SURFACE MODELING 
As mentioned already, accurate surface modeling is a key issue 
in the generation of orthoimages both geometrically reliable and 
visually correct. Locally inaccurate description of very demand- 
ing surfaces leads here to geometric inaccuracies and 'stretched' 
or *melted' orthoimage areas. The commercially available soft- 
ware commonly used represents object surfaces as a DTM with a 
single value Z for each planimetric XY location (more complex 
surfaces not representable in this way call for special treatment; 
e.g. Knyaz & Zheltov, 2000). All photogrammetrically collected 
elevation points and breaklines are typically integrated by De- 
launay triangulation into a surface mesh defined by triangles. In 
fact, manual stereoscopic measurement is still the main mode of 
collection. Automatic DTM generation in archaeological ortho- 
imaging remains an open question (Baratin et al., 2000). Laser 
scanning collection, on the other hand, faces problems of post- 
processing for the creation of triangulated meshes suitable for 
the existing orthophoto software (Bóhler et al., 2001). Besides, 
not every archaeological site is accessible to laser scanners as it 
may be to photography. 
Obviously, attention must be paid in the collection phase to the 
inclusion of all significant surface breaks and discontinuities (a 
process which also requires certain amounts of experience). But 
one must also a priori have a clear idea of the type of algorithm 
which will be used to generate the surface model for orthophoto 
production (as pointed out by Baratin et al., 2000). In the expe- 
rience of the authors, perhaps the most usual problem in ortho- 
imaging archaeological objects is modeling surfaces orthogonal 
to each other, i.e. the formation of ‘vertical’ triangles, a task en- 
countered in all projects outlined above. In such cases, the soft- 
ware needs to be ‘assisted’ by suitable collection. 
Generally, data for vertical faces are sampled as a combination 
of breaklines on top with spot heights at the bottom. This, how- 
ever, does not necessarily protect from a ‘random’ triangulation 
which will later cause a deformation during image resampling. 
Attempting to create orthoimages possibly equivalent to the im- 
portance of the monuments, the following collection scheme has
