Abstract
A photogrammetric camera for airborne or spaceborne terrain recording includes several electro-optical sensors that can be arranged at a distance from each other in the flight direction. The electro-optical sensors scan the overflown terrain and record each scanned terrain region at least twice from a respectively different perspective. At least two surface detectors are provided as the electro-optical sensors.
Claims2
A photogrammetric camera for airborne or spaceborne terrain sensing, comprising a plurality of electro-optical sensors arranged to be spaced from each other in a flight direction that scan an overflown terrain and record scanned terrain regions at least twice from a respectively different perspective, in which:
- said plurality of electro-optical sensors comprise at least two surface detectors, which detectors have planar surfaces, further comprising imaging optics that image said scanned terrain regions on said planar surfaces, and a deflecting mirror pivotable by motor, associated with each of said surface detectors for compensation of flight motion during exposure of said plurality of electro-optical sensors.
A photogrammetric camera for airborne or spaceborne terrain sensing, comprising a plurality of electro-optical sensors arranged to be spaced from each other in a flight direction that scan an overflown terrain and record scanned ten regions at least twice from a respectively different perspective, in which:
- said plurality of electro-optical sensors comprise at least two surface detectors, which detectors have planar surfaces, her comprising imaging optics that image said scanned terrain regions on said planar surfaces, and
- a separate camera objective associated with each of said surface detectors, said camera objectives having optical axes that run mutually obliquely.
