This research addresses the experimental application of the digital close-range photogrammetric technique for 3D deformation measurement and visualization of road slope. The 3D displacements were extracted by the photo-triangulation based on the bundle adjustment method using the digital imagery. In addition, we produced the digital elevation models, the digital orthorectified images and the 3D perspective view images of the slope employing a digital photogrammetric workstation. Also the inclination map of the slope was generated as the data for monitoring and managing dangerous slopes.

Because CCD camera acquires the digital images without separate processing, its availabilities are increased. In this study, for CCD camera calibration DLT equation and radial or decentering distortion equation are combined and the calibration parameters are calculated using three dimensional test model. The digital images acquired by CCD camera are matched using coefficient of correlation and the three dimensional coordinates of objects are determined. Also, the potential usefulness of CCD camera in close range photogrammetry is examined.

The detection of free spaces between obstacles in a scene is a prerequisite for navigation of a mobile robot. Especially for stereo vision-based navigation, the problem of correspondence between two images is well known to be of crucial importance. This paper describes multi-range approach of area-based stereo matching for grid mapping and visual navigation in uncertain environment. Camera calibration parameters are optimized by evolutionary algorithm for successful stereo matching. To obtain reliable disparity information from both images, stereo images are to be decomposed into three pairs of images with different resolution based on measurement of disparities. The advantage of multi-range approach is that we can get more reliable disparity in each defined range because disparities from high resolution image are used for farther object a while disparities from low resolution images are used for close objects. The reliable disparity map is combined through post-processing for rejecting incorrect disparity information from each disparity map. The real distance from a disparity image is converted into an occupancy grid representation of a mobile robot. We have investigated the possibility of multi-range approach for the detection of obstacles and visual mapping through various experiments.

In this paper, we studied on measurement of soil deformation around the tip of model pile by close-range photogrammetry. The rigorous bundle adjustment method was utilized to monitor the soil deformation in the laboratory model pile-load test as function of incremental penetration of the pile. Control points were installed on the frame of the laboratory model box case and more than 150 target points were inserted inside the soil around the model pile and on the surface. Four overlapping images including three horizontal and one vertical image were acquired by a non-metric camera for each penetration step. The images were processed to automatically locate the control and target points in the images for the self-calibration and the bundle adjustment. During the bundle adjustment, the refraction index of the acrylic case of the laboratory model was accounted for accurate measurement. The experiment showed the proposed approach enabled the automated photogrammetric monitoring of soil deformation around the tip of model pile.

This paper presents a image coding method that is well adaptive to close-range video transmission because of its low titrate and simple coding procedure. At first, it reduces temporal redundancies by performing image DPCM between previous frame and current frame, and makes wavelet transformed image of this difference image. Then, the coefficients are quantized selectively by using the coefficient values of base level and mid-frequency level because inter-level redundancies are widely exists in multi-resolution images. Finally quantized coefficients are made iron the function that implies the target bitrate, the average coefficient energy, and the value of the level. The proposed method shows the effective Performance in the experiments using the continuous motion images and transition images.

In this study, the 3D position coordinates were calculated for the targets using DLT and self-calibration bundle adjustment with additional parameters in close-range photogrammetry. And then, the accuracy of the results were analysed. For this purpose, the results of camera calibration and orientation parameters were calculated for each images by performing reference surveying using total station though the composition of experimental conditions attached numerous targets. To analyze the accuracy, 3D position coordinates were calculated for targets that has been identically selected and compared with the reference coordinates obtained from a total station. For the image coordinate measurement of the stereo images, we performed the ellipse fitting procedure for measuring the center point of the circular target. And then, the results were utilized for the image coordinate for targets. As a results from experiments, position coordinates calculated by the stereo images-based photogrammetry have resulted out the deviation of less than an average 4mm within the maximum error range of less than about 1cm. From this result, it is expected that the stereo images-based photogrammetry would be used to field of various close-range photogrammetry required for precise accuracy.

The development of still video CCD cameras has simplified dramatically the digital imaging process. Still video cameras have flexibility that allows digital image acquisition and on-board image storage without being connected to a computer. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the performance of digital close-range photogrammetric system using the still video camera for dimensional inspection and structural monitoring being required in various industries. Some sub-pixel measurement techniques, which is indispensable for digital image measurement, were suggested. The author carried out the self-calibration of a high resolution DCS420 still video camera and then test application of a structure. The self-calibrating bundle adjustments resulted in object space accuracies which exceed 1 :46,000. It is ascertained that this digital close-range photogrammetric system has high accuracy potential and task effectiveness for industrial applications.

The development of equipments which are for the collection and processing of digital images in digital photogrammetry is actively performed at the research about practical use. The close-range digital photogrammetry is widely using to determine accurate position, feature, and size of objects. The goal of this study is to judge the precise surveying possibility of a streamline object, like a vehicle, using digital close-range photogrammetry. The standard deviation of the calculated coordinates is respectively ${\sigma}_x$=0.434mm, ${\sigma}_y$=0.619mm, ${\sigma}_z$=0.387mm. The result values is enough to converge an accuracy required for the field of an automobile design. Therefor we suggest that the digital close-range photogrammetry could be use for the majority of industries.

The increasing need and use of 3D GIS particularly in urban areas has produced growing attention on building reconstruction. Nowadays, the use of close-range data for building reconstruction has been intensively emphasized since they can provide higher resolution and more complete coverage than airborne sensory data. We developed a fusion approach for building reconstruction from both points and images. The proposed approach was then applied to reconstructing a building model from real data sets acquired from a large existing building. Based on the experimental results, we assured that the proposed approach cam achieve high resolution and accuracy in building reconstruction. The proposed approach can effectively contribute in developing an operational system producing large urban models for 3D GIS.

The purpose of this study is to measure displacements that occurs on a surface and interior of slope model and the shape when the slope is destroyed at vibration experiment of the slope model using close range photogrammetry. The circle targets and sphere targets are installed on a chamber and a slope model, while the earthquake wave are applied in regular time interval. The close range photogrammetric images are acquired in each displacements step until the slope model is destroyed. Those photos are processed by image processing method and the center points of targets are automatically extracted. Furthermore, the three-dimensional coordinates of targets are calculated by image orientation and bundle adjustment processing. As a result, amount of displacement at each level is precisely measured and provided the basic information for assessing the slope stability using three-dimensional measurement of the target movement and slope destruction.
