Abstract

A high-resolution picture of the island Samoylov was needed for the classification
of vegetation and surface characteristics and hydrologic modeling. This image
was created using aerial pictures with a resolution of 0.5 m/pixel and standard
photogrammetry software.
The field work for obtaining the aerial pictures from balloons or helicopter flights
is described in Chapter 3.1. Furthermore, Scheritz et al. (2008) describe in detail
the method for creating the digital elevation model, including camera calibration,
ground survey and photogrammetric analysis.
