Análisis, mejora y automatización de métodos de apoyo para fotogrametría de objeto cercano

Abstract

This PhD thesis presents a low-cost solution based on automatized procedures for capture and process of ground control points for orientation and registration of images valid for close range photogrammetry. The theoretical concepts applied in the different phases have been developed, such as the geometric study of planes, the least-squares adjustments, projective transformation and the uncertainties analysis. The practical application has consisted in the implementation of a system composed in two parts: Hardware: it consists in a robotic total station with two digital cameras fitted to it. Software (PAAFOC program): it allows the capture, storage and processing of the measured information and images, automatic point measurement and automated preparation of the ground control points sketches. Finally, a quality control of the implemented system has been carried out through several tests under different conditions.
