Flow chart of the two-stage transformation
The transformations can be extended to include corrections for any deterministic
error. Such correction computations can be segmented between the higher rate trans
formation runs.
A modular arrangement of the equipment and sequential processing appear to be most
appropriate. The digitising unit should provide for an easy and rapid operation.
Medium accuracy and resolution ( cr Q * 10 ^m) is satisfactory. The observation
system should allow of good interpretability. In off-line operation a simple plotting
device should be attached to sketch traced lines and points. This would permit the
Inspection of digitising.
f.
Metrip operations, photo-interpretation, and cartographic editing can be separated
more distinctly than in conventional stereo-plotting. This leads to better employment
of personnel, and thus to increased performance. The D. M. P. system» can ]?e made
highly flexible and versatile.
VI. CONCLUSION
The development of digital equipment components in photogrammetry has led from the
existing autonomous and/or dedicated units towards increasingly integrated systems.
