The course in English will be available if a minimum of 6 students sign up for a group. If less than 6 students sign up for the group, the course will be available in Polish with the possibility of individual support in English.

Learning outcomes: During the course students learn theoretical knowledge and practical skills about the digital photogrammetric methods of measuring of images. Student is able to elaborate a block of images in an ImageStation Digital Photogrammetric WorkStation (knows how to carry out aerotriangulację, to obtain data for digital terrain model and generate the digital orthophotomap).

Competences: After passing the course, the students are be able to use of digital methods of preparation of aerial photographs and satellite images.

Prerequisites: photogrammetry and remote sensing (at the basic level – engineering level)

Course content: Photogrammetric scanners. Photogrammetric digital camera. Digital photogrammetric WorkStations. The main directions of the automation of photogrammetric process . Generation of DTM from photographs (photogrammetry measurement techniques: manually, semi-automatic, automatic methods , the accuracy of the DTM). Airborne laser scanning as applied to building of DTM. Digital orthophotograpic processing - orthophotomap. Creating epipolar images. Image matching techniques: Area Base Matching, Feature Base Matching. Specialist image processing - projection on the plane and surfaces.
