PHOTOMOD 5.0 today. PHOTOMOD 5.0 today. Main changes for the last yearMain changes for the last year
automatic DTM creation algorithm improvements new powerful DTM filters (“removing” buildings and vegetation) speeding up automatic AT process (about 2 times) high-quality smooth contour lines
more distributed processing (adding images, orthomosaicking, DTM, AAT)
VisionMap A3 sensor support
asynchronous sensors comfortable stereoprocessing (WorldView) UltraCam metadata (interior and exterior orientation parameters) support ADS 40 source data automatic pre-processing self-calibration procedure improvements more start approaches for bundle adjustment precise block layouts by using DTM speeding up raster visualization saving block layouts to georeferenced rasters RapidEye sensor support satellite images in NITF + RPC format support EXIF metadata support for non-professional cameras and more…

A similar approach is used in another task:We have a set of contour lines (from map digitizing).
We need a DEM.
In this case we use Soap Film equations(elliptical equations of the 2nd order)
