Topics of course
The aim of the course is to give students an insight into classical photogrammetry, to learn about the main characteristics of analogue and digital aerial photographs and to master the steps of processing. The theoretical part of the course will cover the following topics: the origin, development and photographic basics of classical aerial photography; the practice of classical aerial photography; analytical evaluation of aerial photographs; data extraction from aerial photographs - quantitative data collection; data extraction from aerial photographs - qualitative data collection; single-image photogrammetry - distortions; single-image photogrammetry - orthorectification; two-image photogrammetry - visual and digital evaluation from camera images; multi-image photogrammetry - processing of small format digital images, types of orthophotos; object photogrammetry; generation of surface models by photogrammetry. In the practical part of the course, the following topics will be covered: review of the main features of aerial photography; examination of the development of aerial photography; characteristics of modern analogue and digital aerial photography; examination of historical aerial photography; practice in the analysis of stereo aerial photography; examination of distortions in aerial photography; practice in single-image photogrammetry; practice in stereo photogrammetry; event reconstruction with aerial photography; practical application of aerial photography.
