SOME QUESTIONS RELATED TO THE MATHEMATICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPHIC PROCESS,

Abstract

The mathematical relationship between the points of two planes that have been mapped onto one another by the photographic process is investigated. The study is in essence expository and was motivated by a question concerning the ability to map one photographic image of a plane object onto a second image in such a way that corresponding points correspond to the same object or ground point. While in theory this is shown to be possible, provided certain conditions can be satisfied, any application would have to take into consideration the effect of errors contained in measured data. The error analysis is not pursued in this report. (Author)
