INTRODUCTION
Photogrammetry
Science of making measurements from either aerial or terrestrial photograph. The purpose of the
survey is to recover the exact position of surface points after it get distorted. Beside that,
photogrammetry

survey

is

use

for

urban

planning

and

safety

planning

from

disaster.Photogrammetry analysis may be applied to one photograph and maybe use high speed
photography or RemoteSensing to detect and measure complex 2D and 3D

Information on aerial photo

Every aerial photo has different information about it,there will be different in flight line sequence
number, time and more.

Scanning Process
Is an important procedure to convert aerial photo into digital. In digital form, aerial photo can be
easily analyses compare to manual by using stereo plotter. By using suitable software aerial
photo can be process in no time and take short time to be complete. Usually the software use to
analyses the aerial photo is Photomode. From a digital photo, many important information can
bring out about the feature on the ground and can be classified. The scan process usually in Tiff
format. For a lower spec computer usually it will scan on 600 Dpi(Dot per Inch) only to avoid
system override and reduce time.
EQUIPMENT
Scanner

To scan aerial photo and convert into

digital image to be analyse later

Computer

Use to control scanner fuction software

and to store the digital image in server

Aerial Photo

Flight image of the area which need to

convert to digital

PROCEDURE:
1-Converting aerial image into digital form
1. Choose any aerial photo prepared/given and make sure the aerial photo in the same flight
line and side by side. Example no 18-no19
2. Open the scanner, put the aerial photo to be scan to convert it to digital form.
3. On the menu in computer, set the scanner to scan the photo on 600 Dpi only to avoid
override.
4. Ensure to scan the picture of aerial photo only and save the picture in tiff format.
5. Save the picture to use later in the next process.
2-Determine the information on aerial photo
1.

Determine the photo sequence number(flight line)

Determine date and time
Determine the project number
Determine the principal point
Determine the fiducial mark

CONCLUSION
For the uses in software, aerial photo must be convert in to digital from throught scanning using
a scanner.In digital photo, aerial photo can be thoroughly analyse and bring a lot benefit to the
photo surveyor.Beside the photo can be save in server and avoid damage to the photo.
