SOME METHODS AND INVESTIGATIONS FOR 
DETERMINING THE QUALITY OF AERIAL PHOTOGRAPHS 
by Erik Welander 
Geographical Survey Office, Stockholm 
Abstract Starting from the conceptions of “resolving power” and “acutance” the evolu 
tion towards the contrast transfer functions is described. 
The different links of the image forming system, of which the aerial photograph is the final 
result, are tackled with the aid of transfer functions. These links are, among others, the lens, 
the emulsion, the image movement, the vibrations and the haze. Further, the brightness range 
and the differences between the reflectance values of the terrain details are of special interest. 
The transfer functions point out that image movement and haze cause the greatest image 
deterioration. Some investigations into the effects of these two factors are reported. Transfer 
functions obtained from the air at different velocities and with different amounts of haze are 
shown. Here a simple form of test target was used. 
Finally, an attempt to determine the contrast transfer functions for an aerial photograph with 
out any test target is demonstrated. The applications to photo interpretation purposes are 
discussed. 
Résumé En partant des concepts de “pouvoir de résolution” et d’ “acutance”, on décrit 
dans cette note le développement des fonctions du transfert de contraste. 
Les différents stades du système de formation de l’image, dont la photographie aérienne est 
l’aboutissement, sont traités à l’aide des fonctions de transfert. Parmi ces différents stades, citons 
en autres les lentilles, les émulsions, les mouvements de l’image, les vibrations et les brumes. 
On porte plus loin un intérêt particulier aux intensités lumineuses et aux différences entre les 
valeurs de réflexion des détails du terrain. 
Ces fonctions de transfert prouvent que ce sont les mouvements de l’image et les brumes qui 
occasionnent les plus grands dommages aux photographies. On mentionne les fonctions de 
transfert obtenues de l’air pour différentes vitesses et différentes quantités de brume. On a uti 
lisé dans ce cas une simple figure d’un tableau de test. 
Il est décrit pour finir un essai de détermination des fonctions de transfert de contraste pour 
une photographie aérienne sans tableau test. Les applications pratiques destinées à l’inter 
prétation photographique font l’object d’une discussion. 
Zusammenfassung Mit Ausgangspunkt von den Begriffen “Auflösungsvermögen” und 
“Akutanz” wird die Entwicklung zu den Kontrastübertragungsfunktionen beschrieben. 
Die verschiedenen Glieder des bildzeugenden Systems, in dem die Luftaufnahme das Ender 
gebnis darstellt, werden mit Hilfe der Ubertragungsfunktionen behandelt. Diese Glieder sind 
u.a. das Objektiv, die Emulsion, die Bildbewegung, die Vibrationen und das Luftlicht. Ferner 
sind der Objektumfang und die Unterschiede zwischen den Reflektanzwerten des Geländes 
von besonderem Interesse. 
Die Ubertragungsfunktionen weisen darauf hin, dass die Bildbewegung und das Luftlicht die 
grösste Bildverschlechterung verursachen. Einige Untersuchungen über die Wirkung dieser 
beiden Faktoren werden angeführt. Ubertragungsfunktionen, aus der Luft erhalten und bei 
verschiedenen Geschwindigkeiten, sowie mit verschiedenen Beträgen von Luftlicht werden ge 
zeigt. Hier wurde eine einfache Form einer Testtafel verwendet. 
Schliesslich wird ein Versuch zur Bestimmung der Kontrastübertragungsfunktionen für eine 
Luftaufnahme ohne Testtafel veranschaulicht. Die Anwendungen für Photointerpretations 
zwecke werden erörtert. 
In recent years quite new test methods have been evolved in optics. These 
methods are also of great interest in photogrammetry, because they offer essen-
