    Study Notes

    Aerial Photography Basics

    • Perpendicular dropped from the camera lens center to the ground plane is known as the optical axis.
    • When the photo plane is kept parallel to the ground plane, a vertical aerial photograph is obtained.

    Key Definitions

    • Plumb line drawn from the lens center to the photo plane is called the vertical axis.

    Challenges in Aerial Photography

    • In practice, it is impossible to maintain the optical axis of the camera truly vertical.

    Tilted Photographs

    • Photographs taken with the camera axis tilted slightly from vertical are called tilted photographs.
