  2. Photogrammetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photogrammetry

    Close-range photogrammetry refers to the collection of photography from a lesser distance than traditional aerial (or orbital) photogrammetry. Photogrammetric analysis may be applied to one photograph, or may use high-speed photography and remote sensing to detect, measure and record complex 2D and 3D motion fields by feeding measurements and ...

  3. Least-squares adjustment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least-squares_adjustment

    There are three forms of least squares adjustment: parametric, conditional, and combined: In parametric adjustment, one can find an observation equation h(X) = Y relating observations Y explicitly in terms of parameters X (leading to the A-model below).

  4. Aerial photographic and satellite image interpretation

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerial_photographic_and...

    Photo interpretation at the U.S. National Photographic Interpretation Center during the Cuban Missile Crisis.. Aerial photographic and satellite image interpretation, or just image interpretation when in context, is the act of examining photographic images, particularly airborne and spaceborne, to identify objects and judging their significance. [1]

  5. 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 ...

  6. Structure from motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_from_motion

    This is known as motion parallax, and this depth information can be used to generate an accurate 3D representation of the world around them. [2] Finding structure from motion presents a similar problem to finding structure from stereo vision. In both instances, the correspondence between images and the reconstruction of 3D object needs to be found.

  7. Boundary problem (spatial analysis) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boundary_problem_(spatial...

    In spatial analysis, four major problems interfere with an accurate estimation of the statistical parameter: the boundary problem, scale problem, pattern problem (or spatial autocorrelation), and modifiable areal unit problem. [1] The boundary problem occurs because of the loss of neighbours in analyses that depend on the values of the neighbours.

  8. Image rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_rectification

    Image rectification in GIS converts images to a standard map coordinate system. This is done by matching ground control points (GCP) in the mapping system to points in the image. These GCPs calculate necessary image transforms. [11] Primary difficulties in the process occur when the accuracy of the map points are not well known

  9. Modifiable areal unit problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modifiable_areal_unit_problem

    The modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) is a source of statistical bias that can significantly impact the results of statistical hypothesis tests. MAUP affects results when point-based measures of spatial phenomena are aggregated into spatial partitions or areal units (such as regions or districts ) as in, for example, population density or ...
