Learning outcomes: The student has knowledge of the methods of collection, storage and processing of digital images; The student has an ordered knowledge in the elaboration of measurement images on digital photogrammetry methods; He knows the photogrammetric terminology; orients itself in the current state of photogrammetry and recent trends of development; The student has an established photogrammetric knowledge and knows what is the relation between photogrammetry and engineering geodesy. Skills The student can perform advanced transformation of digital images based on the tools available in the software packages used in photogrammetry, remote sensing, GIS, geodesy and cartography; Student is able to elaborate a block images in the ImageStation environment (DPW); He has practical skills in the use of digital methods of development of aerial photographs and satellite images; is able to interpret the results and draw conclusions; Student can - when formulating and solving the engineering tasks - to integrate knowledge of the fields of sciences, scientific disciplines and specializations related to photogrammetry and geodesy and apply a systematic approach, taking into account the non-technical aspects.

Competences: The student is able to cooperate and work in a group, taking on different roles The student is able to properly identify priorities for implementation specified by yourself or other tasks The student is able to think and act in a creative and enterprising

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

Course content: During the course students increases 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 aerotriangulation, to obtain data for digital terrain model and generate the digital orthophotomap). After passing the course, the students are be able to use of digital methods of preparation of aerial photographs. 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.
