Considering only one photogrammetric system,i.e. one camera, one
carrier etc., strips flown at different photo scales may lead to
a similar effect. In our case of the two réseau cameras involved,
combined use of 1:11,000 and 1:5,500 photography is advisable.
Here also a combination of different systems for calibration is
possible, provided the test area has not suffered alterations
in targeting.
For economical reasons only some calibrations have been computed
using these more expensive procedures.
(2) Variations of control pattern have also been investigated. Former
computations showed that one needn't densify control lest there
is want of photography (less than our "standard case" defined be-
fore).
Full control only at the corners of the area (4 points) does not
suffice. An additional height control in the centre of the area
is the least requirement. Height control for all targeted points
is economically feasable in flat terrain. Having spare point
heights for check is a means for proving the quality of calibra-
tion.
6. CALIBRATION RESULTS
6.1 GENERAL REMARKS
Optimum partial field calibration is reached, if the residuals of
photo coordinates after adjustment approach the noise level to be ex-
pected (Ellenbeck 1976, Kupfer 1973). This implies stationary systema-
tic errors. On the other hand high redundancy of observations must be
given to get significant results. Using only sparse geodetic control,
at least the "standard case" of flight lines has to be applied, i.e.
four lines crosswise at 1:11,000 scale, thus avoiding gross deforma-
tions of the object space (Thomas 1976).
Hence the following terms serve as indicators for judging the
results fo calibration:
