Die 3D Particle Tracking Velocimetry (3D PTV) ist eine Methode zur bildbasierten Bestimmung von Geschwindigkeitsfeldern in Gas- oder Flüssigkeitsströmungen. Dazu wird die Strömung mit Partikeln markiert und durch ein Mehrkamerasystem beobachtet. Das Ergebnis der Datenauswertung sind 3D Trajektorien einer großen Anzahl von Partikeln, die zur statistischen Analyse der Strömung genutzt werden können. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden verschiedene neu entwickelte Modelle gezeigt, die das Einsatzspektrum vergrößern und die Leistungsfähigkeit der 3D PTV erhöhen. Wesentliche Neuerungen sind der Einsatz eines Spiegelsystems zur Generierung eines virtuellen Kamerasystems, die Modellierung von komplex parametrisierten Trennflächen der Mehrmedienphotogrammetrie, eine wahrscheinlichkeitsbasierte Trackingmethode sowie eine neuartige Methode zur tomographischen Rekonstruktion von Rastervolumendaten. Die neuen Modelle sind an drei realen Experimentieranlagen und mit synthetischen Daten getestet worden. Durch den Einsatz eines Strahlteilers vor dem Objektiv einer einzelnen Kamera und vier Umlenkspiegeln, positioniert im weiteren Strahlengang, werden vier virtuelle Kameras generiert.

Full textAbstract:
In recent years the science revolving image matching algorithms has gotten an upswing mostly due to its benefits in computer vision. This has led to new opportunities for photogrammetric methods to compete with LiDAR data when it comes to 3D-point clouds and generating surface models. In Sweden a project to create a high resolution national height model started in 2009 and today almost the entirety of Sweden has been scanned with LiDAR sensors. The objective for this project is to achieve a height model with high spatial resolution and high accuracy in height. As for today no update of this model is planned in the project so it’s up to each municipality or company who needs a recent height model to update themselves. This thesis aims to investigate the benefits and shortcomings of using photogrammetric measures for generating and updating surface models. Two image matching software are used, ERDAS photogrammetry and Spacemetric Keystone, to generate a 3D point cloud of a rural area in Botkyrka municipality. The point clouds are interpolated into surface models using different interpolation percentiles and different resolutions. The photogrammetric point clouds are evaluated on how well they fit a reference point cloud, the surfaces are evaluated on how they are affected by the different interpolation percentiles and image resolutions. An analysis to see if the accuracy improves when the point cloud is interpolated into a surface. The result shows that photogrammetric point clouds follows the profile of the ground well but contains a lot of noise in the forest covered areas. A lower image resolution improves the accuracy for the forest feature in the surfaces. The results also show that noise-reduction is essential to generate a surface with decent accuracy. Furthermore, the results identify problem areas in dry deciduous forest where the photogrammetric method fails to capture the forest.

Full textAbstract:
3D-Punktwolken haben die Objektvermessung in den letzten 25 Jahren signifikant verändert. Da Einzelpunktmessungen durch flächenhafte Messungen in Form von Punktwolken bei vielen Anwendungen ersetzt wurden, spricht man auch von einem Paradigmenwechsel in der Vermessung. Ermöglicht wurde diese Änderung in der Messmethodik durch die Innovationen im Instrumentenbau und die rasanten Entwicklungen der Computertechnologie. Luftgestützte und terrestrische Laserscanner sowie handgeführte 3D-Scanner liefern heute direkt dichte Punktwolken, während dichte 3D-Punkt-wolken aus Fotos bildbasierter Aufnahmesysteme indirekt abgeleitet werden, die zur detaillierten 3D-Objektrekonstruktion zunehmend eingesetzt werden. In dieser Arbeit werden Untersuchungen vorgestellt, mit denen das geometrische Genauigkeitsverhalten verschiedener scannender Messsysteme evaluiert und geprüft wurde. Während bei den untersuchten terrestrischen Laserscannern in den Untersuchungen die Genauigkeitsangaben (1 Sigma) der technischen Spezifikationen der Systemhersteller von 3-5 mm für den 3D-Punkt und die Distanzmessung eingehalten wurden, zeigten sich dagegen bei vielen untersuchten 3D-Handscannern signifikante Abweichungen gegenüber den technischen Spezifikationen. Diese festgestellten Abweichungen deuten auf eine gewisse geometrische Instabilität des jeweiligen Messsystems hin, die entweder durch die Bauweise und/oder durch eine ungenaue Systemkalibrierung (besonders hinsichtlich der Maßstäblichkeit) verursacht werden. Daher ist davon auszugehen, dass diese handgeführten 3D-Scanner offensichtlich erst am Anfang ihrer Entwicklungsphase stehen und dass noch genügend Optimierungspotential vorhanden ist. Als flexible und effiziente Alternativen zu den scannenden Messsystemen haben sich seit ca. 10 Jahren die bildbasierten Aufnahmesysteme zunehmend im Markt etabliert. Die in dieser Arbeit vorgestellten Untersuchungen des bildbasierten Aufnahme- und Auswertungsverfahren haben gezeigt, dass diese (mit Farbattributen versehene) 3D-Punktwolken, je nach Bildmaßstab und Oberflächenmaterial des Objektes, durchaus den Genauigkeiten der Laserscanner entsprechen. Gegenüber den Ergebnissen vieler 3D-Handscanner weisen die durch bildbasierte Aufnahmeverfahren generierten Punktwolken qualitativ bessere Resultate auf. Allerdings zeigte der Creaform HandySCAN 700, der auf einem photogrammetrischen Aufnahmeprinzip beruht, als einzige Ausnahme bei der handgeführten 3D-Scannern sehr gute Ergebnisse, die mit Durchschnittswerten besser als 30 Mikrometern sogar in den Bereichen der Referenzsysteme (hier Streifenprojektionssysteme) lagen. Die entwickelten Prüfverfahren und die entsprechenden durchgeführten Untersuchungen haben sich als praxistauglich erwiesen, da man auch unter zur Hilfenahme der VDI/VDE Richtlinie 2634 ver-gleichbare Ergebnisse erzielt, die dem praxisorientierten Anwender Aussagen über die Leistungsfä-higkeit des Messsystems erlauben. Bei den im statischen Modus erfassten Scans kommen noch Fehlereinflüsse durch die Registrierung der Scans hinzu, während bei kinematisch erfassten Scans die Genauigkeiten der verschiedenen (absoluten) Positionierungssensoren auf dem Fehlerhaushalt der Punktwolke addiert werden. Eine sorgfältige Systemkalibrierung der verschiedenen im kinematischen Modus arbeitenden Positionierungs- und Aufnahmesensoren des mobilen Multi-Sensor-Systems ermöglicht eine 3D-Punktgenauigkeit von ca. 3-5 cm, die unter guten Bedingungen mit höherwertigen Sensoren ggf. noch verbessert werden kann. Mit statischen Scans kann eine höhere Genauigkeit von besser als 1 cm für den 3D-Punkt erreicht werden, jedoch sind bei größeren aufzunehmenden Flächen mobile Aufnahmesysteme wesentlich effizienter. Die Anwendung definiert daher das zum Einsatz kommende Messverfahren. 3D-Punktwolken dienen als Grundlage für die Objektrekonstruktion auf verschiedenen Wegen: a) Engineering Modelling als generalisierte CAD-Konstruktion durch geometrische Primitive und b) Mesh Modelling durch Dreiecksvermaschung der Punktwolken zur exakten Oberflächenbeschreibung. Durch die Generalisierung bei der CAD-Konstruktion können sehr schnell Abweichungen vom Sollmaß von bis zu 10 cm (und größer) entstehen, allerdings werden durch die Anpassung auf geometrische Primitive eine signifikante Datenreduktion und eine topologische Strukturierung erreicht. Untersuchungen haben jedoch auch gezeigt, dass die Anzahl der Polygone bei der Dreiecksvermaschung je nach Oberflächenbeschaffenheit des Objektes auf 25% und sogar auf 10% der Originaldatenmenge bei intelligenter Ausdünnung (z.B. krümmungsbasiert) reduziert werden kann, ohne die visuelle und geometrische Qualität des Ergebnisses zu stark zu beeinträchtigen. Je nach Objektgröße können hier Abweichungen von unter einem Millimeter (z.B. bei archäologischen Fundstücken) bis zu 5 cm im Durchschnitt bei größeren Objekten erreicht werden. Heute können Punktwolken eine wichtige Grundlage zur Konstruktion der Umgebung für viele Virtual Reality Anwendungen bilden, bei denen die geometrische Genauigkeit der modellierten Objekte im Einzelfall keine herausragende Rolle spielt3D point clouds have significantly changed the surveying of objects in the last 25 years. Since in many applications, the individual point measurements were replaced through area-based measurements in form of point clouds, a paradigm shift in surveying has been fulfilled. This change in measurement methodology was made possible with the rapid developments in instrument manufacturing and computer technology. Today, airborne and terrestrial laser scanners, as well as hand-held 3D scanners directly generate dense point clouds, while dense point clouds are indirectly derived from photos of image-based recording systems used for detailed 3D object reconstruction in almost any scale. In this work, investigations into the geometric accuracy of some of these scanning systems are pre-sented to document and evaluate their performance. While terrestrial laser scanners mostly met the accuracy specifications in the investigations, 3-5 mm for 3D points and distance measurements as defined in the technical specifications of the system manufacturer, significant differences are shown, however, by many tested hand-held 3D scanners. These observed deviations indicate a certain geometric instability of the measuring system, caused either by the construction/manufacturing and/or insufficient calibration (particularly with regard to the scale). It is apparent that most of the hand-held 3D scanners are at the beginning of the technical development, which still offers potential for optimization. The image-based recording systems have been increasingly accepted by the market as flexible and efficient alternatives to laser scanning systems for about ten years. The research of image-based recording and evaluation methods presented in this work has shown that these coloured 3D point clouds correspond to the accuracy of the laser scanner depending on the image scale and surface material of the object. Compared with the results of most hand-held 3D scanners, point clouds gen-erated by image-based recording techniques exhibit superior quality. However, the Creaform HandySCAN 700, based on a photogrammetric recording principle (stereo photogrammetry), shows as the solitary exception of the hand-held 3D scanners very good results with better than 30 micrometres on average, representing accuracies even in the range of the reference systems (here structured light projection systems). The developed test procedures and the corresponding investigations have been practically proven for both terrestrial and hand-held 3D scanners, since comparable results can be obtained using the VDI/VDE guidelines 2634, which allows statements about the performance of the tested scanning system for practice-oriented users. For object scans comprised of multiple single scan acquired in static mode, errors of the scan registration have to be added, while for scans collected in the kine-matic mode the accuracies of the (absolute) position sensors will be added on the error budget of the point cloud. A careful system calibration of various positioning and recording sensors of the mobile multi-sensor system used in kinematic mode allows a 3D point accuracy of about 3-5 cm, which if necessary can be improved with higher quality sensors under good conditions. With static scans an accuracy of better than 1 cm for 3D points can be achieved surpassing the potential of mobile recording systems, which are economically much more efficient if larger areas have to be scanned. The 3D point clouds are the basis for object reconstruction in two different ways: a) engineering modelling as generalized CAD construction through geometric primitives and b) mesh modelling by triangulation of the point clouds for the exact representation of the surface. Deviations up to 10 cm (and possibly higher) from the nominal value can be created very quickly through the generalization in the CAD construction, but on the other side a significant reduction of data and a topological struc-turing can be achieved by fitting the point cloud into geometric primitives. However, investigations have shown that the number of polygons can be reduced to 25% and even 10% of the original data in the mesh triangulation using intelligent polygon decimation algorithms (e.g. curvature based) depending on the surface characteristic of the object, without having too much impact on the visual and geometric quality of the result. Depending on the object size, deviations of less than one milli-metre (e.g. for archaeological finds) up to 5 cm on average for larger objects can be achieved. In the future point clouds can form an important basis for the construction of the environment for many virtual reality applications, where the visual appearance is more important than the perfect geometric accuracy of the modelled objects

Dazu wird im Beitrag ein optisches Hochgeschwindigkeits-Mehrkamera-Messsystem vorgestellt, mit dem auch schnelle Prozesse berührungslos analysiert werden können. Es wird gezeigt, wie durch die Zusammenführung von Bewegungsanalyse und Daten aus der Maschinensteuerung der Informationsgehalt und damit auch die Aussagefähigkeit von Messungen deutlich erhöht werden kann.

Full textAbstract:
Soil erosion is a complex geomorphological process with varying influences of different impacts at different spatio-temporal scales. To date, measurement of soil erosion is predominantly realisable at specific scales, thereby detecting separate processes, e.g. interrill erosion contrary to rill erosion. It is difficult to survey soil surface changes at larger areal coverage such as field scale with high spatial resolution. Either net changes at the system outlet or remaining traces after the erosional event are usually measured. Thus, either quasi-point measurements are extrapolated to the corresponding area without knowing the actual sediment source as well as sediment storage behaviour on the plot or erosion rates are estimated disrupting the area of investigation during the data acquisition impeding multi-temporal assessment. Furthermore, established methods of soil erosion detection and quantification are typically only reliable for large event magnitudes, very labour and time intense, or inflexible.
To better observe soil erosion processes at field scale and under natural conditions, the development of a method is necessary, which identifies and quantifies sediment sources and sinks at the hillslope with high spatial resolution and captures single precipitation events as well as allows for longer observation periods. Therefore, an approach is introduced, which measures soil surface changes for multi-spatio-temporal scales without disturbing the area of interest. Recent advances regarding techniques to capture high resolution topography (HiRT) data led to several promising tools for soil erosion measurement with corresponding advantages but also disadvantages. The necessity exists to evaluate those methods because they have been rarely utilised in soil surface studies.
On the one hand, there is terrestrial laser scanning (TLS), which comprises high error reliability and retrieves 3D information directly. And on the other hand, there is unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) technology in combination with structure from motion (SfM) algorithms resulting in UAV photogrammetry, which is very flexible in the field and depicts a beneficial perspective. Evaluation of the TLS feasibility reveals that this method implies a systematic error that is distance-related and temporal constant for the investigated device and can be corrected transferring calibration values retrieved from an estimated lookup table. However, TLS still reaches its application limits quickly due to an unfavourable (almost horizontal) scanning view at the soil surface resulting in a fast decrease of point density and increase of noise with increasing distance from the device. UAV photogrammetry allows for a better perspective (birds-eye view) onto the area of interest, but possesses more complex error behaviour, especially in regard to the systematic error of a DEM dome, which depends on the method for 3D reconstruction from 2D images (i.e. options for additional implementation of observations) and on the image network configuration (i.e. parallel-axes and control point configuration). Therefore, a procedure is developed that enables flexible usage of different cameras and software tools without the need of additional information or specific camera orientations and yet avoiding this dome error. Furthermore, the accuracy potential of UAV photogrammetry describing rough soil surfaces is assessed because so far corresponding data is missing.
Both HiRT methods are used for multi-temporal measurement of soil erosion processes resulting in surface changes of low magnitudes, i.e. rill and especially interrill erosion. Thus, a reference with high accuracy and stability is a requirement. A local reference system with sub-cm and at its best 1 mm accuracy is setup and confirmed by control surveys. TLS and UAV photogrammetry data registration with these targets ensures that errors due to referencing are of minimal impact. Analysis of the multi-temporal performance of both HiRT methods affirms TLS to be suitable for the detection of erosion forms of larger magnitudes because of a level of detection (LoD) of 1.5 cm. UAV photogrammetry enables the quantification of even lower magnitude changes (LoD of 1 cm) and a reliable observation of the change of surface roughness, which is important for runoff processes, at field plots due to high spatial resolution (1 cm²). Synergetic data fusion as a subsequent post-processing step is necessary to exploit the advantages of both HiRT methods and potentially further increase the LoD.
The unprecedented high level of information entails the need for automatic geomorphic feature extraction due to the large amount of novel content. Therefore, a method is developed, which allows for accurate rill extraction and rill parameter calculation with high resolution enabling new perspectives onto rill erosion that has not been possible before due to labour and area access limits. Erosion volume and cross sections are calculated for each rill revealing a dominant rill deepening. Furthermore, rill shifting in dependence of the rill orientation towards the dominant wind direction is revealed.
Two field plots are installed at erosion prone positions in the Mediterranean (1,000 m²) and in the European loess belt (600 m²) to ensure the detection of surface changes, permitting the evaluation of the feasibility, potential and limits of TLS and UAV photogrammetry in soil erosion studies. Observations are made regarding sediment connectivity at the hillslope scale. Both HiRT methods enable the identification of local sediment sources and sinks, but still exhibiting some degree of uncertainty due to the comparable high LoD in regard to laminar accumulation and interrill erosion processes. At both field sites wheel tracks and erosion rills increase hydrological and sedimentological connectivity. However, at the Mediterranean field plot especially dis-connectivity is obvious. At the European loess belt case study a triggering event could be captured, which led to high erosion rates due to high soil moisture contents and yet further erosion increase due to rill amplification after rill incision. Estimated soil erosion rates range between 2.6 tha-1 and 121.5 tha-1 for single precipitation events and illustrate a large variability due to very different site specifications, although both case studies are located in fragile landscapes. However, the susceptibility to soil erosion has different primary causes, i.e. torrential precipitation at the Mediterranean site and high soil erodibility at the European loess belt site.
The future capability of the HiRT methods is their potential to be applicable at yet larger scales. Hence, investigations of the importance of gullys for sediment connectivity between hillslopes and channels are possible as well as the possible explanation of different erosion rates observed at hillslope and at catchment scales because local sediment sink and sources can be quantified. In addition, HiRT data can be a great tool for calibrating, validating and enhancing soil erosion models due to the unprecedented level of detail and the flexible multi-spatio-temporal application.

This thesis investigates how texture classification can be used to automatically classify tree species from image of bark texture. The texture analysis methods evaluated in the thesis are, grey level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), two different wavelet texture analysis methods and finally the scale-invariant feature transform. To evaluate the methods two classifiers, a linear support vector machine (SVM) and a kernel based import vector machine (IVM) was used. The tree species that were classified were Scotch Pine and Norwegian Spruce and the auxiliary class ground. Three experiments were conducted to test the methods. The experiments used subimages of bark extracted from terrestrial photogrammetry images. For each sub-image, the X ,Y and Z coordinates were available. Thefirst experiment compared the methods by classifying each sub-image individually based on image data alone. In the second experiment the spatial data was added. Additionally feature selection was performed in both experiments to determine the most discriminating features. In the final experiment individual trees were classified by clustering all data from each tree.For sub-image classification, the addition of spatial data increased the overall accuracy for the best method from 75.7% to 94.9% The best method was IVM on GLCM textural features. The most discriminating textural feature was homogeneity in the horizontal direction. The best methods to classify individual trees were SVM with GLCM with an overall accuracy of 88%.In summary, the methods was found to be promising for tree bark classification. However, the individual tree results were based on a low number of trees. To establish the methods' true usefulness, testing on a larger number of trees is necessary.

Full textAbstract:
3D reconstruction is the process of constructing a three-dimensional model from images. It contains multiple steps where each step can induce errors. When doing 3D reconstruction of outdoor scenes, there are some types of scene content that regularly cause problems and affect the resulting 3D model. Two of these are water, due to its fluctuating nature, and sky because of it containing no useful (3D) data. These areas cause different problems throughout the process and do generally not benefit it in any way. Therefore, masking them early in the reconstruction chain could be a useful step in an outdoor scene reconstruction pipeline. Manual masking of images is a time-consuming and boring task and it gets very tedious for big data sets which are often used in large scale 3D reconstructions. This master thesis explores if this can be done automatically using Convolutional Neural Networks for semantic segmentation, and to what degree the masking would benefit a 3D reconstruction pipeline.3D-rekonstruktion är teknologin bakom att skapa 3D-modeller utifrån bilder. Det är en process med många steg där varje steg kan medföra fel. Vid 3D-rekonstruktion av stora utomhusmiljöer finns det vissa typer av bildinnehåll som ofta ställer till problem. Två av dessa är vatten och himmel. Vatten är problematiskt då det kan fluktuera mycket från bild till bild samt att det kan innehålla reflektioner som ger olika utseenden från olika vinklar. Himmel å andra sidan ska aldrig ge upphov till 3D-information varför den lika gärna kan maskas bort. Manuell maskning av bilder är väldigt tidskrävande och dyrt. Detta examensarbete undersöker huruvida denna maskning kan göras automatiskt med Faltningsnät för Semantisk Segmentering och hur detta skulle kunna förbättra en 3D-rekonstruktionsprocess.

Full textAbstract:
Terrestrische Laserscanner finden seit einigen Jahren immer stärkere Anwendung in der Praxis und ersetzen bzw. ergänzen bisherige Messverfahren, oder es werden neue Anwendungsgebiete erschlossen. Werden die Daten eines terrestrischen Laserscanners mit photogrammetrischen Bilddaten kombiniert, ergeben sich viel versprechende Möglichkeiten, weil die Eigenschaften beider Datentypen als weitestgehend komplementär angesehen werden können: Terrestrische Laserscanner erzeugen schnell und zuverlässig dreidimensionale Repräsentationen von Objektoberflächen von einem einzigen Aufnahmestandpunkt aus, während sich zweidimensionale photogrammetrische Bilddaten durch eine sehr gute visuelle Qualität mit hohem Interpretationsgehalt und hoher lateraler Genauigkeit auszeichnen. Infolgedessen existieren bereits zahlreiche Ansätze, sowohl software- als auch hardwareseitig, in denen diese Kombination realisiert wird. Allerdings haben die Bildinformationen bisher meist nur ergänzenden Charakter, beispielsweise bei der Kolorierung von Punktwolken oder der Texturierung von aus Laserscannerdaten erzeugten Oberflächenmodellen. Die konsequente Nutzung der komplementären Eigenschaften beider Sensortypen bietet jedoch ein weitaus größeres Potenzial. Aus diesem Grund wurde im Rahmen dieser Arbeit eine Berechnungsmethode – die integrierte Bündelblockausgleichung – entwickelt, bei dem die aus terrestrischen Laserscannerdaten und photogrammetrischen Bilddaten abgeleiteten Beobachtungen diskreter Objektpunkte gleichberechtigt Verwendung finden können. Diese Vorgehensweise hat mehrere Vorteile: durch die Nutzung der individuellen Eigenschaften beider Datentypen unterstützen sie sich gegenseitig bei der Bestimmung von 3D-Objektkoordinaten, wodurch eine höhere Genauigkeit erreicht werden kann. Alle am Ausgleichungsprozess beteiligten Daten werden optimal zueinander referenziert und die verwendeten Aufnahmegeräte können simultan kalibriert werden. Wegen des (sphärischen) Gesichtsfeldes der meisten terrestrischen Laserscanner von 360° in horizontaler und bis zu 180° in vertikaler Richtung bietet sich die Kombination mit Rotationszeilen-Panoramakameras oder Kameras mit Fisheye-Objektiv an, weil diese im Vergleich zu zentralperspektiven Kameras deutlich größere Winkelbereiche in einer Aufnahme abbilden können. Grundlage für die gemeinsame Auswertung terrestrischer Laserscanner- und photogrammetrischer Bilddaten ist die strenge geometrische Modellierung der Aufnahmegeräte. Deshalb wurde für terrestrische Laserscanner und verschiedene Kameratypen ein geometrisches Modell, bestehend aus einem Grundmodell und Zusatzparametern zur Kompensation von Restsystematiken, entwickelt und verifiziert. Insbesondere bei der Entwicklung des geometrischen Modells für Laserscanner wurden verschiedene in der Literatur beschriebene Ansätze berücksichtigt. Dabei wurde auch auf von Theodoliten und Tachymetern bekannte Korrekturmodelle zurückgegriffen. Besondere Bedeutung innerhalb der gemeinsamen Auswertung hat die Festlegung des stochastischen Modells. Weil verschiedene Typen von Beobachtungen mit unterschiedlichen zugrunde liegenden geometrischen Modellen und unterschiedlichen stochastischen Eigenschaften gemeinsam ausgeglichen werden, muss den Daten ein entsprechendes Gewicht zugeordnet werden. Bei ungünstiger Gewichtung der Beobachtungen können die Ausgleichungsergebnisse negativ beeinflusst werden. Deshalb wurde die integrierte Bündelblockausgleichung um das Verfahren der Varianzkomponentenschätzung erweitert, mit dem optimale Beobachtungsgewichte automatisch bestimmt werden können. Erst dadurch wird es möglich, das Potenzial der Kombination terrestrischer Laserscanner- und photogrammetrischer Bilddaten vollständig auszuschöpfen. Zur Berechnung der integrierten Bündelblockausgleichung wurde eine Software entwickelt, mit der vielfältige Varianten der algorithmischen Kombination der Datentypen realisiert werden können. Es wurden zahlreiche Laserscannerdaten, Panoramabilddaten, Fisheye-Bilddaten und zentralperspektive Bilddaten in mehreren Testumgebungen aufgenommen und unter Anwendung der entwickelten Software prozessiert. Dabei wurden verschiedene Berechnungsvarianten detailliert analysiert und damit die Vorteile und Einschränkungen der vorgestellten Methode demonstriert. Ein Anwendungsbeispiel aus dem Bereich der Geologie veranschaulicht das Potenzial des Algorithmus in der PraxisThe use of terrestrial laser scanning has grown in popularity in recent years, and replaces and complements previous measuring methods, as well as opening new fields of application. If data from terrestrial laser scanners are combined with photogrammetric image data, this yields promising possibilities, as the properties of both types of data can be considered mainly complementary: terrestrial laser scanners produce fast and reliable three-dimensional representations of object surfaces from only one position, while two-dimensional photogrammetric image data are characterised by a high visual quality, ease of interpretation, and high lateral accuracy. Consequently there are numerous approaches existing, both hardware- and software-based, where this combination is realised. However, in most approaches, the image data are only used to add additional characteristics, such as colouring point clouds or texturing object surfaces generated from laser scanner data. A thorough exploitation of the complementary characteristics of both types of sensors provides much more potential. For this reason a calculation method – the integrated bundle adjustment – was developed within this thesis, where the observations of discrete object points derived from terrestrial laser scanner data and photogrammetric image data are utilised equally. This approach has several advantages: using the individual characteristics of both types of data they mutually strengthen each other in terms of 3D object coordinate determination, so that a higher accuracy can be achieved; all involved data sets are optimally co-registered; and each instrument is simultaneously calibrated. Due to the (spherical) field of view of most terrestrial laser scanners of 360° in the horizontal direction and up to 180° in the vertical direction, the integration with rotating line panoramic cameras or cameras with fisheye lenses is very appropriate, as they have a wider field of view compared to central perspective cameras. The basis for the combined processing of terrestrial laser scanner and photogrammetric image data is the strict geometric modelling of the recording instruments. Therefore geometric models, consisting of a basic model and additional parameters for the compensation of systematic errors, was developed and verified for terrestrial laser scanners and different types of cameras. Regarding the geometric laser scanner model, different approaches described in the literature were considered, as well as applying correction models known from theodolites and total stations. A particular consideration within the combined processing is the definition of the stochastic model. Since different types of observations with different underlying geometric models and different stochastic properties have to be adjusted simultaneously, adequate weights have to be assigned to the measurements. An unfavourable weighting can have a negative influence on the adjustment results. Therefore a variance component estimation procedure was implemented in the integrated bundle adjustment, which allows for an automatic determination of optimal observation weights. Hence, it becomes possible to exploit the potential of the combination of terrestrial laser scanner and photogrammetric image data completely. For the calculation of the integrated bundle adjustment, software was developed allowing various algorithmic configurations of the different data types to be applied. Numerous laser scanner, panoramic image, fisheye image and central perspective image data were recorded in different test fields and processed using the developed software. Several calculation alternatives were analysed, demonstrating the advantages and limitations of the presented method. An application example from the field of geology illustrates the potential of the algorithm in practice

Numerous simulation and control applications of mobile robotics require accurate kinematic models. A kinematic model relates the position and orientation of a robot to control inputs. This thesis proposes a non-intrusive methodology to calibrate kinematic models for wheeled mobile robots. Model calibration requires accurate measurement of kinematic state and robust estimation techniques to account for process and measurement uncertainty. A photogrammetric camera system is used to measure the kinematic trajectory of wheeled mobile robot. A fully projective formulation of Lowe's pose recovery algorithm is used to estimate robot pose from monocular images. A derivative free form of the extended Kalman filter is applied to the time series pose data to estimate robot model parameters. Experimental results are presented for a differential wheeled mobile robot. Calibration by photogrammetry is shown to be viable for typical mobile robot applications.

Full textAbstract:
This study proposes and demonstrates a through-water photogrammetry approach for Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB), which may be used to map nearshore bathymetry in the Canadian Arctic. A four step process is used: First, a standard photogrammetric extraction is performed on 2 m resolution WorldView stereo imagery, then apparent depths are calculated by referencing submerged points to the extracted elevation of the water level seen in the image. Due to the effects of refraction, these apparent depths are underestimates, and a refraction correction factor is applied to convert to actual depths. Finally, tidal stage at the time of image acquisition is used to bring depths to chart datum. A post processing step may be applied to remove erroneous depths caused by water surface objects such as boats, debris, or large waves. This was demonstrated in six study areas across Nunavut, Canada to test its robustness under a variety of environmental conditions, including different seafloor types, and under varying sea states. The six study sites were (with vertical accuracy given in Root Mean Square Error/and vertical bias, both in meters): eastern Coral Harbour (1.18/0.03), western Coral Harbour (0.78/-0.32), Cambridge Bay (1.16/0.08), Queen Maud Gulf (0.97/0.13), Arviat (1.02/0.13), and Frobisher Bay, where bathymetry extraction largely failed due to unfavourable sea surface conditions. These findings show that the proposed method has similar or better vertical accuracy as currently established SDB approaches; however, it has several benefits over the established methods which make it better suited for the Arctic. Namely, not requiring the precise atmospheric correction necessary for physics-based models, which is difficult at high latitudes; as well as being able to function in heterogeneous seafloor environments and not needing in-situ calibration data like the empirical spectral ratio approach, better suiting it to remote Arctic waters which often lack existing bathymetric survey data.

Full textAbstract:
Food resources of pelagic marine predators have traditionally been difficult to monitor and annual monitoring of food-resource availability is not currently feasible for the Weddell seal (Leptonychotes wedellii) population in Erebus Bay, Antarctica. Body mass measurements of parturient females, or their weaned pups, on an annual basis may be used as an indicator of food availability during the previous year and also provide a link between population vital rates and environmental fluctuation. Traditional methods of acquiring mass measurements, including physical restraint and/or chemical immobilization, limit the ability to sample adequately large numbers of individuals from the population of interest. Previous researchers have developed methods to estimate the mass of large seals using scaled photographs, but later application of these methods have not explicitly included uncertainty around estimates derived from predictive equations. I therefore developed the equipment and methods for estimating the mass of Weddell seals using digital photographs and image-analysis software. I then applied the method at a small scale to determine how prediction intervals may be incorporated into calculations based on mass estimates and what affect the explicit use of these intervals would have on the ability to detect differences between the mass of individuals or groups of seals. Scaled photographs of adult female and pup Weddell seals were taken from overhead, ground-level side, and ground-level head or tail perspectives. Morphometric measurements from scaled photographs (photogrammetric measurements) were then correlated using regression against the measured mass at the time of photography. Sampling occurred throughout the nursing period in order to build regression models over a wide range of masses. Resulting regression models predict the mass of adult female seals to within ±13.8% of estimated mass, and ±25.9% of estimated mass for pups. In an application of the method, differences in mass transfer between experienced and inexperienced maternal females and their pups were detected when prediction intervals were explicitly included. Detection of differences between individual seals may not be possible when prediction intervals are included with mass estimates, but estimated mass measurements should be useful for comparing mean differences across a population between years in relation to environmental variation.

Full textAbstract:
Roads are an integral part of today's lifestyle. Indeed, a modern and efficient economy requires a satisfactory road network. The road network in the United Kingdom faces ever-increasing demands with 94% of passenger travel and 92% of freight transport undertaken by road. Maintenance of the network is essential. Prior to the commencement of any maintenance scheme, an accurate highway profile is measured by undertaking a detailed topographic survey of the road surface and the adjacent verges. Traditionally, this is carried out by land surveyors using, for example, a theodolite, EDM and level. Highway surveying by traditional methods is a slow, costly and dangerous process. A photogrammetric technique was devised by Photarc Surveys Ltd of Harrogate, UK to reduce the problems of speed, cost and safety. This helicopter based photographic system can yield topographic data at up to ±5mm rmse through photogrammetric analysis. It is necessary to install ground control points on the hard shoulder for use in the photogrammetric analysis. This research investigates the potential of both conventional aerial triangulation and in-flight GPS assisted aerial triangulation for reducing this ground control requirement. The original photographic system is extended to integrate a GPS positioning system and the performance of this system is assessed through a series of field trials. The results of the research show that the camera can be positioned by the GPS system to within 5 centimetres. The GPS positions can be included in the aerial triangulation to further reduce the requirement for ground control. It is shown that for mapping at the ± 5mm rmse level, there is no potential for height control reduction, even when GPS positions are used. However for mapping at up to ± 20mm, the GPS positions can enable a significant reduction in ground control.

Both computer generated and actual test camera data were generated to determine the effectiveness of the math model and computer program. A twenty-seven parameter bundle adjustment routine was proposed because of its versatility and compatible use in an existing aerotriangulation package. For the camera and test configuration considered, the focal length was recovered to within two percent, and the principal point location was recovered to wi thin O. 3 to twelve percent. When the computer generated data was used, the focal length and principal point offset were recovered to within 0.2 percent.
Modeling and software has been made available for a future comparative study between the self-calibration and Direct Linear Transformation adjustment parameters. The self-calibration modeling and former Direct Linear Transformation modeling software is a promising tool for mensuration tests and experiments with video and Charge Coupled Device (CCD) imagery.

Every year, thousands of people all over the world are loosing their lives in natural disasters. As a second most widespread hazard, landslides are still a disaster problem for Turkey. The long-term monitoring studies of instability phenomena have a paramount importance for Turkey to reduce its both direct and indirect effects.
The objective of this thesis is to monitor the activity of the Bülbü
lderesi and Bakacak landslides in Asarsuyu Catchment for 42 years period by the digital aerial photogrammetric techniques while evaluating the possible use of archive aerial photography in such analysis. To achieve the purpose of the study an orthophoto map was generated by aerial photographs belonging to 1994 year. The orthophoto map was utilized as a base map for aerial photo interpretation of different sets of aerial photographs corresponding to 1952, 1972, 1984 and 1994 years. As a result of this, 4 landslide activity maps are obtained. In addition, the characteristics of these landslides are analyzed by utilizing digital elevation model (DEM) created from stereo photographs of 1994. As a result of the study, no considerable variation is detected in the position of main boundaries of Bü
lbü
lderesi and Bakacak landslides except some minor differences. However, within the landslides many topographical changes were observed between 1952 and 1994 period. Based on the profiles from toe to crest of the Bü
lbü
lderesi landslide, the approximate length was measured as 4773m whereas the approximate width was about 2614m. The areal extent was calculated as ~12km2 having an approximate slope gradient ranging between 10-15°
with local variations. On the other hand, the approximate length of Bakacak landslide was 4420m and the approximate width was 832m from toe to crest with an area of ~4km2 and with an approximate slope angle 9-14°

The CCD (Charge Coupled Device) image formation theory is at the foundation of 3D vision systems. Ideally, a five-element block diagram can model this process. The first block represents the nonlinear distortions caused by camera lenses. The second and third elements gather the low-pass filter effects due to lens aberrations and CCD phenomenon. A fourth block illustrates the quantization effects induced by a series of discrete photosensitive elements on the CCD and by the A/D conversion for analog cameras. The last block represents the addition of random noise on the discrete signal. Because step-like luminance transitions undergoing lens distortion remain step-like, it is possible to precisely correct for the distortions after the edge localization. The efficient distortion correction process is exactly where the camera lens calibration challenge resides. The calibration exercise also seeks the intrinsic and extrinsic camera parameters, i.e. the information that relates to the camera optics and the information that describes the location and orientation of the camera in 3D space. This thesis presents a review and evaluation of several methods designed for optimal accuracy on the parameters evaluation. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

However, existing petrochemical plants seldom match their drawings, or the drawings are lost, forcing the need to generate a 3D model of the structure of the plant. In this thesis photogrammetry is investigated as a method of generating a digital 3D model of an existing plant. Camera modeling, target extraction and 3D reconstruction are discussed in detail, and a real-world system is investigated.

Six spatial parameters, (x, y, z) for translation, and pitch, roll, and yaw for rotation, are used to describe the 3-dimensional position and orientation of a rigid body—the 6 degrees of freedom (DOF). The ability to measure these parameters is required in a diverse range of applications including machine tool metrology, robot calibration, motion control, motion analysis, and reconstructive surgery. However, there are limitations associated with the currently available measurement systems. Shortcomings include some of the following: short dynamic range, limited accuracy, line of sight restrictions, and capital cost. The objective of this dissertation was to develop a new metrology system that overcomes line of sight restrictions, reduces system costs, allows large dynamic range and has the potential to provide high measurement accuracy.
The new metrology system proposed in this dissertation is based on a combination of photogrammetry and optical pattern projection. This system has the potential to enable real-time measurement of a small lightweight module's location. The module generates an optical pattern that is observable on the surrounding walls, and photogrammetry is used to measure the absolute coordinates of features in the projected optical pattern with respect to a defined global coordinate system. By combining these absolute coordinates with the known angular information of the optical projection beams, a minimization algorithm can be used to extract the absolute coordinates and angular orientation of the module itself. The feasibility of the proposed metrology system was first proved through preliminary experimental tests. By using a module with a 7×7 dot matrix pattern, experimental agreement of 1 to 5 parts in 103 was obtained by translating the module over 0.9 m and by rotating it through 60°. The proposed metrology system was modeled through numerical simulations and factors affecting the uncertainty of the measurement were investigated. The simulation results demonstrate that optimum design of the projected pattern gives a lower associated measurement uncertainty than is possible by direct photogrammetric measurement with traditional tie points alone. Based on the simulation results, a few improvements have been made to the proposed metrology systems. These improvements include using a module with larger full view angle and larger number of dots, performing angle calibration for the module, using a virtual camera approach to determine the module location and employing multiple coordinates system for large range rotation measurement. With the new proposed virtual camera approach, experimental agreement at the level of 3 parts in 104 was observed for the one dimension translation test. The virtual camera approach is faster than the algorithm and an additional minimization analysis is no longer needed. In addition, the virtual camera approach offers an additional benefit that it is no longer necessary to identify all dots in the pattern and so is more amenable to use in realistic and usually complicated environments. A preliminary rotation test over 120° was conducted by tying three coordinate systems together. It was observed that the absolute values of the angle differences between the measured angle and the encoder reading are smaller than 0.23° for all measurements. It is found that this proposed metrology system has the ability to measure larger angle range (up to 360°) by using multiple coordinate systems. The uncertainty analysis of the proposed system was performed through Monte Carlo simulation and it was demonstrated that the experimental results are consistent with the analysis.

There is great demand today for real-time computer vision systems, with applications including image enhancement, target detection and surveillance, autonomous navigation, and scene reconstruction. These operations generally require extensive computing power; when multiple conventional processors and custom gate arrays are inappropriate, due to either excessive cost or risk, a class of devices known as Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) can be employed. FPGAs per the flexibility of a programmable solution and nearly the performance of a custom gate array. When implementing a custom algorithm in an FPGA, one must be more efficient than with a gate array technology. By tailoring the algorithms, architectures, and precisions, the gate count of an algorithm may be sufficiently reduced to t into an FPGA. The challenge is to perform this customization of the algorithm, while still maintaining the required performance. The techniques required to perform algorithmic optimization for FPGAs are scattered across many fields; what is currently lacking is a framework for utilizing all these well known and developing techniques. The purpose of this thesis is to develop this framework for orientation and photogrammetry systems.

Para abordar una planificación coherente de la gestión costera se requiere tomar en consideración el dinamismo de los diferentes cambios morfológicos que caracterizan estos ambientes a distintas escalas espaciales y temporales.
El límite tierra-agua varía en función de la posición del nivel del mar y de la forma del perfil de playa que continuamente queda modelado por las olas incidentes. Intentar modelizar la respuesta de un paisaje tan voluble geomorfológicamente como las playas requiere disponer de múltiples medidas registradas con suficiente precisión para poder reconocer su respuesta frente a la acción de los distintos agentes geomórficos.

[EN] Beaches are extremely valuable ecological spaces where terrestrial and marine environments converge along a fragile transition strip. An improvement in our understanding of the physical processes that occur in the coastal zone has become increasingly important during the last century. To approach a coherent planning of coastal management it is necessary to consider the dynamism of the various morphological changes that characterize these environments at different spatial and temporal scales. The land-water boundary varies according to the sea level and the shape of a beach profile that is continuously modelled by incident waves. Attempting to model the response of a landscape as geomorphologically volatile as beaches requires multiple precise measurements to recognize responses to the actions of various geomorphic agents. It is therefore essential to have monitoring systems capable of systematically recording the shoreline accurately and effectively. New methods and tools are required to efficiently capture, characterize, and analyze information - and so obtain geomorphologically significant indicators. This is the aim of the doctoral thesis, focusing on the development of tools and procedures for coastal monitoring using satellite images and terrestrial photographs. The work brings satellite image processing and photogrammetric solutions to scientists, engineers, and coastal managers by providing results that demonstrate the usefulness of these viable and low-cost techniques. Existing and freely accessible public information (satellite images, video-derived data, or crowd-sourced photographs) can be converted into high quality data for monitoring morphological changes on beaches and thus help achieve a sustainable management of coastal resources.

Bibliography: leaves 117-125.The task of recording our physical heritage is of significant importance: our past cannot be divorced from the present and it plays an integral part in the shaping of our future. This applies not only to structures that are hundreds of years old, but relatively more recent architectural structures also require adequate documentation if they are to be preserved for future generations. In recording such structures, the traditional 2D methods are proving inadequate. It will be beneficial to conservationists, archaeologists, researchers, historians and students alike if accurate and extensive digital 3D models of archaeological structures can be generated. This thesis investigates a method of creating such models, using digital photogrammetry. Three different types of model were generated: 1. the simple CAD (Computer Aided Design) model; 2. an amalgamation of 3D line drawings; and 3. an accurate surface model of the building using DSMs (Digital Surface Models) and orthophotos.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis proposes a new approach, photogrammetric multi-view stereo, for accurate and dense 3D reconstruction, including scale recovery from images. The novelty of the method can be seen in exploiting the length of the stereo camera base separation to define scale within a robust adjustment algorithm. The method is tested by imaging a series of known objects with stereo camera systems of varying quality. In each case, the baseline scaled network output is used as input into four different state-of-the-art dense matching packages in order to generate a series of dense (detailed) point clouds. Results demonstrate that networks, comprising some 50 images captured with consumer grade digital SLR cameras, can deliver 3D point data with an uncertainty around 100μm. Results are shown to be of comparable quality to a metrology grade triangulation laser scanner. Experiences gained with these stereo systems exposed a key data handling limitation in that both image capture and processing time are highly dependent on the number of camera views used. In particular, the volumes of data make the dense matching process impractical on current consumer level computing hardware. This problem demands a logical clustering and selection of the most suitable viewpoints (vantage viewpoints) from the large image dataset to provide a reduced network with similar overall capability. The second part of the research described in this thesis addresses this challenge through the development and testing of a novel methodology capable of structuring the viewpoints into clusters and then selecting vantage images resulting in more effective processing whilst ensuring a specified level of coordinate precision and point cloud completeness. The developed method is compared against the established CMVS clustering method using an in-house Imaging Network Designer (IND) suite of software developed during the course of the research. Results demonstrate that IND can provide a better image selection for subsequent dense reconstruction than CMVS in terms of completeness. The ability to select vantage images raises another research question in the feasibility of designing a complete imaging network from scratch. This issue is investigated and validated through a novel stereo imaging network design strategy. Again, this is implemented within the IND software framework and evaluated with both simulation and practical tests. In simulation tests, IND performance was tested by: 1) a comparison between spherical and ellipsoidal imaging network configurations 2) capability to select an appropriate stereo camera system to achieve a given level of point cloud precision. In practical tests, IND was evaluated using a purpose built imaging robot, INDRo, to capture images from each designed camera posture. The images were then used for accurate and dense 3D reconstruction using the photogrammetric multi view stereo method in two modes: 1) resolving scale with stereo camera base separation; 2) resolving scale with control points. The system provided this opportunity to test the effect of incidence angle, one of the key internal IND parameters, which affects the density of the network and should be adjusted with respect to the performance of feature matching algorithms. The results of this test showed that the matching algorithms work effectively for incidence angles of 10o. The results demonstrated that the final point cloud generated with the system in resolving scale with either control points or stereo camera base separation has an agreement of 0.3mm with a dataset generated with an Arius3D laser scanner. Furthermore, work on inverse robotic kinematics demonstrated the feasibility of using Particle Swarm Optimization to achieve the required camera poses with this non-standard robot.

Verfahren der digitalen Nahbereichsphotogrammetrie ermöglichen eine dreidimensionale Erfassung von Objekten und stellen damit interessante Lösungsansätze für Messaufgaben im Bautechnischen Mess- und Versuchswesen dar. Ihr Einsatz bietet bei einer Vielzahl baumechanischer Untersuchungen die Voraussetzung für eine kontinuierliche, zeitsynchrone Objektoberflächenerfassung bei kurz- und langzeitigen Belastungsversuchen im Labor und in situ. Die daraus resultierenden Möglichkeiten der kontinuierlichen Erfassung von Verformungs-, Riss- und Schädigungsentwicklungen an Objektoberflächen stellen für viele experimentelle Untersuchungen im Bauingenieurwesen eine signifikante Qualitätssteigerung dar, die mit klassischen Messtechniken – wie z. B. Dehnmessstreifen oder induktiven Wegaufnehmern – nur bedingt bzw. nicht realisiert werden kann. Um das Potential der digitalen Nahbereichsphotogrammetrie zur kontinuierlichen Erfassung der Verformungs-, Riss- und Schädigungsentwicklung an Objektoberflächen bei baumechanischen Untersuchungen erfassen zu können, wurden – aufbauend auf den bekannten Grundlagen und Lösungsansätzen – systematische Untersuchungen durchgeführt. Diese bildeten den Ausgangspunkt für den Einsatz photogrammetrischer Verfahren bei experimentellen Untersuchungen in den verschiedenen Teildisziplinen des Bauingenieurwesens, z. B. im Holz-, Massiv-, Mauerwerks-, Stahl- und Straßenbau. Die photogrammetrisch zu erfassenden Versuchsobjekte – einschließlich ihrer Veränderungen bei den Belastungsversuchen – waren dabei u. a. kleinformatige Prüfkörper und Baukonstruktionen aus den verschiedensten Materialien bzw. Verbundmaterialien. Bei den anwendungsorientierten Untersuchungen musste beachtet werden, dass aufgrund der z. T. sehr heterogenen Anforderungen und der zahlreichen Möglichkeiten, die beim Einsatz photogrammetrischer Verfahren denkbar waren, die Notwendigkeit der Auswahl und ggf. einer Weiter- bzw. Neuentwicklung geeigneter Systeme, effizienter Verfahren und optimaler Auswertealgorithmen der digitalen Nahbereichsphotogrammetrie bestand. In diesem Zusammenhang wurde mit der systematischen Zusammenstellung und Untersuchung relevanter Einflussgrößen begonnen. Diese waren oftmals durch die jeweiligen photogrammetrischen Messprozesse und Messaufgaben beeinflusst. Die Ergebnisse machen deutlich, dass die digitale Nahbereichsphotogrammetrie ein flexibel anwendbares Werkzeug für die Erfassung der Verformungs-, Riss- und Schädigungsentwicklung bei baumechanischen Untersuchungen darstellt. Spezielle Messaufgaben stellen im Bautechnischen Mess- und Versuchswesen oftmals sehr hohe Anforderungen an die Messgenauigkeit, die Robustheit und das Messvolumen. Sie erfordern optimierte Verfahren und führten im Zusammenhang mit der vorliegenden Arbeit zu einer Reihe von Lösungen, wie beispielsweise der 2.5D-Objekterfassung auf Basis der Dynamischen Projektiven Transformation oder der Objekterfassung mittels Spiegelphotogrammetrie. Im Hinblick auf die Objektsignalisierung wurde eine intensitätsbasierte Messmarke entwickelt. Diese ermöglicht besonders bei sehr hochgenauen Deformations- bzw. Dehnungsmessungen ein großes Genauigkeitspotential im Sub-Pixelbereich, das im 1/100 eines Pixels liegt. In Bezug auf die photogrammetrischen Auswerteprozesse wurden optimierte Bildzuordnungsverfahren implementiert, die beispielsweise eine Punkteinmessung von bis zu 60.000 Punkten pro Sekunde ermöglichen und eine Grundlage für die flächenhafte Rissanalyse darstellen. In Bezug auf die qualitative und quantitative Risserfassung wurden verschiedene Verfahren entwickelt. Diese ermöglichen z. B. die lastabhängige Erfassung der Rissposition und -breite in Messprofilen. In einem Messbereich von 100 mm x 100 mm konnten beispielsweise Verformungen mit einer Genauigkeit bis 1 µm und Rissbreiten ab 3 µm erfasst werden. Im Zusammenhang mit den zahlreichen anwendungsbezogenen Untersuchungen entstanden immer wieder Fragen hinsichtlich der Faktoren, die einen Einfluss auf den photogrammetrischen Messprozess im Bautechnischen Mess- und Versuchswesen ausüben. Aufgrund der zahlreichen Einflussgrößen, die als Steuer- bzw. Störgrößen eine mögliche Wirkung auf bauspezifische photogrammetrische Messprozesse ausüben können, wurde im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit mit deren systematischer Zusammenstellung relevanter Einflussgrößen begonnen. Die Relevanz einzelner Einflussgrößen konnte durch Untersuchungen bereits bestätigt werden. Um eine ganzheitliche Bewertung aller relevanten Einflussgrößen aufgabenabhängig vornehmen zu können, wurde ein spezieller Versuchsstand entwickelt. Dieser ermöglicht eine vollautomatisierte systematische Untersuchung bauspezifischer photogrammetrischer Messprozesse unter definierten Versuchsbedingungen und dient dem systematischen Einsatz photogrammetrischer Verfahren im Bautechnischen Mess- und Versuchswesen hinsichtlich der Absicherung bestehender Messaufgaben, kann aber auch zu weiteren neuen und optimierten Messprozessen führenMethods of digital close range photogrammetry are a useful tool for the measurement of three-dimensional objects in civil engineering material testing. They are generally suitable for automatic measurements with chronological synchronism of object-surfaces during short and long time load tests in laboratories and in situ. The methods provide an opportunity for measuring deformations, cracks and damages at the object-surfaces during load tests in civil engineering material testing. These possibilities can present new results for a lot of applications in civil engineering material testing. Displacement and deformation measurements still rely on wire strain gauges or inductive displacement transducers. However, they are not suitable for a large number of measurement points or the detection of cracks during load tests. First of all, a number of systematic investigations was conducted. This was necessary to identify capable methods of the digital photogrammetry for the measuring of deformations, cracks and damages at object-surfaces during load tests in civil engineering material testing. These investigations laid the foundation for practical measurements during short and long time load tests of samples and constructions from different parts of the civil engineering (e.g. timber construction, solid structure, stell and road construction). The application-oriented research in civil engineering material testing demonstrates the wide range of demands on systems and methods of digital close range photogrammetry have to meet. Often the methods and systems of digital close range photogrammetry had to be modified or developed. In this context the systematic analysis of relevant determining factors was started.The results demonstrate that the methods and systems of digital close range photogrammetry are a suitable and flexible tool for the measurement of deformations, cracks and damages at the object-surfaces in civil engineering material testing. In addition, the special experiments in civil engineering material testing demonstrate the high requirements laid upon methods and systems of the digital closed range photogrammetry, for instance regarding with the measurement resolution/range and robustness processes. This was the motivation to optimize and to develop methods and systems for the special measurement tasks in civil engineering material testing, for instance a 2.5D measurement technique based on the Dynamic Projective Transformation (DPT) or the use of mirrors. Also a special measurement target was developed. This type of measurement target modifies intensities and is ideal for high deformation measurements (1/100 pixel). The large number of points in conjunction with area-based measurements require time-optimized methods for the analysis process. The modified and developed methods/programs enable fast analysis-processes, e.g. in conjunction with point-matching process 60.000 points per second.The developed crack-detection-methods allow area- and profile-based to analyze the load-dependent position and width of cracks, e.g. cracks > 3 µm (100 mm x 100 mm). A main target of this work was to compile all relevant determining factors regarding the application of the digital close range photogrammetry during load tests in civil engineering material testing. To a large extent, this target was reached. However, the compilation of all relevant determining factors requires a special experimental set-up. This experimental set-up was developed. In the future, it may enable the automatic research of all significant determining factors. The results can be used to qualify or optimize the established methods and processes. Also it's possible that the results generates new measurement processes

Diese Dissertation soll einen Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung der luftgestützten Verkehrslageerfassung leisten. Als Plattform dafür dient ein flugzeuggetragenes Kamerasystem, welches mit einem Inertialsystem gekoppelt ist. Vorgestellt werden hauptsächlich bildverarbeitende Algorithmen, welche an die Bildaufnahme anschließend bis hin zur Ermittlung der verkehrstechnischen Kenngrößen zum Einsatz kommen. Nach kurzer Skizzierung der verwendeten Hardware wird die Kalibrierung der Kameraeinbauwinkel durch Testflüge erläutert und auf ihre Genauigkeit hin untersucht. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Orientierungsdaten nicht die vom Hersteller angegebene Genauigkeit erreichen, was jedoch für die Verkehrslageerfassung nur von geringer Bedeutung ist. Anschließend an die Bildaufbereitung, welche die Orthobildgenerierung sowie die Eingrenzung der verkehrsaktiven Flächen beinhaltet, wird zur Ermittlung der Fahrzeugdichte ein zweistufiger Fahrzeugerkennungsalgorithmus entwickelt, welcher zunächst auf Kantenfilterbasis möglichst schnell Hypothesen erstellt. Diese werden in einer zweiten Phase durch eine Support Vector Machine überprüft, wobei ein Großteil der Fehlhypothesen verworfen wird. Die Erkennung erreicht bei guten Voraussetzungen Vollständigkeiten bis zu 90 Prozent bei sehr geringem Anteil von Fehldetektionen. Anschließend wird ein auf Singulärwertzerlegung basierender Tracking-Algorithmus verwendet, um Fahrzeughypothesen in benachbarten Bildern zu assoziieren und die mittleren Geschwindigkeiten zu ermitteln. Die erhaltenen Geschwindigkeiten unterscheiden sich um weniger als zehn km/h von den manuell erhobenen. Abschließend wird eine alternative Orientierungsmethode vorgestellt, welche auf Basis von GPS-Positionen und Bildinformationen automatisch die Fluglage ermittelt. Dies geschieht durch die Extraktion und das Matching von Straßensegmenten sowie zusätzliche Passpunktverfolgung. Die Ergebnisse weisen Genauigkeiten von etwa 0,1 bis 0,2 Grad auf.This dissertation should make a contribution to the further development of airborne traffic detection. The used hardware is an airborne camera system combined with an inertial measurement unit for orientation determination. Mainly computer vision algorithms are presented, which are applied afterwards the image acquisition up to the determination of the most important traffic data. After a short presentation of the used hardware the calibration of the camera''s alignment angles during test flights is explained and its accuracy is analyzed. It is shown that the orientation data doesn''t reach the specified accuracy, which is fortunately less important for traffic detection. After the image preparation, which contains the ortho image generation as well as the clipping of traffic areas, a two-stage vehicle detection algorithm is implemented, which at first rapidly creates hypotheses based on edge filters. In the second stage those hypotheses are verified by a Support Vector Machine which rejects most of the False Posititves. At good conditions the detection reaches completeness rates of up to 90 percent with a low contingent of FP detections. Subsequently a tracking algorithm based on singular value decomposition is applied to associate vehicle hypotheses in adjacent images and determine the average speed. The achieved velocities differ less than ten kph from the manually obtained data. Concluding an orientation method is presented, that automatically determines the airplane''s attitude based on GPS and image information. This is realized by extraction and matching of street segments and additional tracking of ground control points. The results have accuracies of around 0.1 to 0.2 degrees.

Clusters are a self organising structures commonly found in natural rivers. They play an important role in river bed dynamics by providing habitat and increasing bed stability. The aim of the present study was to investigate the development of naturally formed cluster microforms from a flattened bed of graded gravel at constant flow rate. The study was laboratory based, and used photogrammetry to observe the behaviour of well graded, cohesionless sediment at flood flow conditions as clusters formed, evolved and disintegrated. Focus was primarily on the cluster formation and sediment movement, and the development of clusters was observed under varying flow rate and grain size distribution. The study of gravel dynamics using coloured particles, coupled with image analysis, has enabled in-depth observation of sediment transport and cluster development. To assist in the study of cluster dynamics, a new application of photogrammetry was developed. A digital particle tracking (DPT) program was successfully applied to recordings of sediment movement over extended experiment durations, and a cluster identification program was developed to monitor cluster evolution. Application of the DPT program to recordings of the gravel bed as it was water worked revealed large spatial and temporal variation of sediment transport rates. Image analysis was used to investigate the progression of armouring, and statistical analysis was applied to surface elevation profiles of the water-worked surface sediment to investigate the effects of armouring. Objective cluster identification was achieved by monitoring the stationary areas of the bed, and designating clusters as areas with stable groups of large particles. This tool was used in combination with DPT to obtain new insights into cluster formation. The complex interactions of clusters with the surrounding bed were studied, and the behavioural trends of cluster formation are presented in this thesis. Surface coverage of clusters on the test section increased over time, with a maximum surface coverage of around 34% observed between all experiments. Particle shape plays a role in cluster formation, where elongate stones form more stable clusters. Clustering is enhanced by the presence of a stationary object on the bed, and the presence of clusters plays a role in attenuating the sediment transport of the surrounding bed.
