In 1967, in Kobe harbour, ship positions in sailing were
determined by photogrammetric method : terrestrial method and aerial
methoi. Two P30 phototheodolites in the terrestrial photogrammetry
were used for taking the successive photos each 6 seconds. In the
same year from fixed points on the beach placed two phototheodolites,
the positions of a ship, on which the instruments of seismic reflection
recorder are carried.
The year 1967 was the first year in Japan when the Terrestrial
photogrammetry was applied to the traffic accident surveying with the
short-range photogrammetry. As a result, the specially designed cars to
carry the stereo-camera mechanized with the automatic function have been
popularly used among the accident management centers belonged to national
police and all local police headquarters in which police men stay whole
day and night and deal with the all kind of works related to the accidents
including the stereo-photographing works in urgent case. There are all
3000 police men working there totally in whole Japan. Nowadays this
management techniques have been extended to apply not only for the traffic
accident sites but also the criminal sites and many works related to the
police business. As of the 1975 calender year, there are 275 stereocameras
and 66 plotting machines belonging to the police stations.
The body measurement of human being has been doing extensively
fram the needs of various kinds of fields such as human being engineering,
cloth design field, anatomy field and so on, not only using the photo-
grammetric method but also the moiré topography, holographic method. As
you all know, Prof. Takazaki, originator of moirétopography, has succeeded
the technique for visualizing contour lines in situ on an object and its
extended application on an object with large size and depth.
Several applications in the field of medical and industrial
engineering were discussed exclusively at the 14th Japan Annual Meeting of
the Medical Engineering Society in 1975 on the boundary problems between
medical and engineering fields
The terrestrial photogrammetric techniques were also effectively
used for the model test for civil and architectural engineering field such
as plastic buckling test of catching I-beam flange and web behaviour under
loading (refer to the Invited Paper of ISP 1968 " Short Range Photogrammetry
of Objects in Motion ") and the model test of suspension roof deformation of
the indoor stadium catching the roof behavious under the various load con-
ditions. The model test of the Taiseki Temple by photogrammetric techniques
controlled for the measurement of deformation under the various loading
conditions and earthquake conditions. The two SMK-120 stereo-cameras were
used for analytical short-range pbotogrammetry.
On the way of applying actually this terrestrial photogrammetry,
many hardware such as specially designed devices for storing the input data
and data processing instruments have been developed and also a series of
system for analyzing the images has been established. :
§ 3 Several Problems on the Way to develop Industrial Photogrammetry
In the Helsinki Congress, the author has remarked on the several
examples of new development of industrial photogrammetry in our country
such as analytical short-ramge photogrammetry for the measurement of a tire
rotating at high speed, measurement of subsidence of the launching ways at
