Subject: GISList: contours and photo scale
Date:  07/03/2002 11:01:33 PM
From:  jayachandran mani



Hi all,

Few more clarifications. Is it possible to create
contours of 1 m interval from aerial photographs of 1
: 8000 or 1 : 10,000 scale through photogrammetric
methods. Digitally, we can create contours / DEM to
any interval through interpolation techniques. Will it
be possible to get the accuracy of the required
accuracy (line and height accuracy) corresponding to
the 1 m contour interval.

I understand that for creating contours of 1 m, DEM
should be of 5 m interval to get the required accuracy
and it may be possible to create such with photographs
of around 1 : 5000 scale.

Any suggestions / clarifications in this context are
welcome. Also more reference to the accuracy standards
of contours / DEM with respect to the photo scale may
also be helpful

Thanks for the help all times.

Regards
Jay
