Camera calibration
A) Multicollimator: consist of
photographing, onto glass plate (focal
plane), images projected through a
number of individual collimators mounted
in a precisely measured angular array.
Light rays carrying the image of the
cross are projected from the collimator
lens.
Colimator for camera calibration
Image of photograph collimator
targets.
Example of camera calibration site
Stellar and field methods
Compare to the lab method, these methods do
not need expensive and special precise
equipment.
Stellar: a target array of identifiable stars is
photographed, the instant of exposure are
recorded.
RA and declination are obtained from
ephemeris, angle subtended by the stars are
known.
These angles are then compared from the
precise angles observed by the camera.
Disadvantages: atmospheric refraction
Calibration: Field procedure
Array of targets be established, the positions
with respect to camera station be measured in
3D, using GPS.
Some distance from the camera.
Camera on top of fixed tower
CFL and PP location to be determined + lens
distortion parameter.
In flight camera calibration: aircraft make multi
passes in different direction over a target
range. Using airborne GPS
Others method
On-the-job calibration
In-situ – same time with object
measurement process
Self-calibration
Extension from on-the-job technique
No need control
