2.3.3 PROSA
The c<
The PROSA measuring program for digital elevation models was developed at the face 1
University of Munich and is also fully integrated into the PHOCUS environ- down r
ment. In line with the method of progressive sampling, a wide-meshed grid is for tl
first measured and is then locally densified depending on the terrain struc- with .
ture. The principal advantage of this approach is the reduction of the number
of measuring points and, as a result, of the measuring time while retaining Apart
the desired degree of accuracy. The contour lines obtained by on-line compu- also <
tation can be displayed and assessed on the VIDEOMAP or Stereo-VIDEOMAP. The gurat
integration into PHOCUS also permits the use of other output instruments sup- (P-cu
ported by PHOCUS such as graphic display terminals or plotters. parti'

A further interesting program in the field of DEM is the PROD profile plot- conne
ting program which permits the graphic representation of any type of terrain
section. PROD enables the generation of a planimetric overview of all pro- Opton
files. Each individual profile can be represented in vertical projection. The surin
graphic output, including the desired lettering, is controlled by a wide systei
range of parameters. If design data is available for the measured profiles,
the cut and fill-up areas in road construction can be highlighted by selec
table types of representation. The PROD program is a useful addition to the
previously mentioned measuring programs.
