    Pont's Analysis is an analysis developed by Pont in 1909. This analysis allows one to predict the width of the maxillary arch at the premolar and molar region by measure the mesio-distal widths of the four permanent incisors.

  4. Orthophoto - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthophoto

    Unlike an uncorrected aerial photograph, an orthophoto can be used to measure true distances, because it is an accurate representation of the Earth's surface, having been adjusted for topographic relief, [1] lens distortion, and camera tilt. Orthophotographs are commonly used in geographic information systems as a "map accurate" background ...
