HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY
In Gemma Frisius' (Dutchman) "De radio astronomico et
geometrico liber" the dark-room drawing appeared for
the first time. There had been some references, about
it, some hundred years ago.
A mention regarding the use of a convex lens in the
dark-room is made Midi
Jacopo Chimenti da Empoli makes a pair of stereoscopio
drawings.
Galileo Galilei learns about the telescope discovery.
After a year, he made his own "Optical tube"- later
known as Galileo's telescope — hawing a looo x magni-
fying power,
Thévenot makes the air-bubble level.
M.A.Cappeler (Swissman) makes a map for Pilat mountain,
using some images drawn on the ground.
J.H,Schultze, known as the father of the photographie
chemistry, presents his researches on the silver ni-
trate blackening under the light influence to the Im-
perial Academy, in Nürnberg.
The German mathematician, Johan Heinrich Lambert, in
his book "Perspectiva liber" laid the mathematical
loundauions of the perspective construction, dealing
with the space resection, for the first time.
Frederich William Herschel finds the existance of the
infrared radiations of the electromagnetic spectrum
(0.780 /^— 1.06004). Using a thermometer and a prism,
he finds a thermal energy beyond the red zone of &
visible spectrum.
J.W.Ritter descovers the ultraviolet zone of the elec-
tromagnetic spectrum (0.004 H - 0.2580). He finde that
beyond the violet zone of a visible spectrum, made by
& prism, brings about a chemical action.
ln his experiments ~ to be continued by other people -
thomas Young finds that similar to energy in the visi-
ble and infrared zones, the energy in the ultraviolet
zone haste electromagnetic wave properties.
N.J.Niépce gets the first photography (positive image).
Lxposure time —- 8 hours. He is considered as the photo-
graphy inventor.
