The scale of the photograph is 10cm = 100m. The photograph size is 23cmx23cm determine the number of photographs required to cover an area of 15kmx10 km, if the longitudinal overlap is 60% and side overlap is 720%.
3. You are assigned to carry out a closed traverse survey on a piece of paddy a) field land filled with backfill soil. The land area is approximately 70 m by 80 m with no distractions on site such as trees or buildings. There is a limitation to the budget and high accuracy may not be necessary. Based on the information obtained above, explain the most suitable type of surveying equipment to be used on this piece of land and why? Then, with an aid of a diagram, explain the method of survey that you are going to use to plot a map of this site.
Fill in the blanks/identification: A detailed engineering alignment study for a proposed by pass road project in Cagayan requires the aerial photography of a 20km x 1km straight strip of predominantly rice land. Specifications include camera format: 23cm x 23cm, focal length: 152.4 m and forward overlap: 60% of format. (Note: Limit your answers up to 2 decimal places only and provide the unit of measurement) A If the photography specifications further require that 90% of the format wide must fit the strip width for the generation of orthophoto maps, determine the average flying height, in meters of the aerial photography. B. If two photographs are exposed at each end of the project area to stereoscopic coverage, determine the total number of photographs. C. For photogrammetric plotting, determine the approximate total area covered by the stereoscopic models, in hectares.

A particular runway measures 6 cm on a vertical photograph, whereas the same runway measures 4 cm on a map plotted on a scale of 1/24000. The scale of the photograph at the runway elevation is
C) A 20-mile strip of terrain is to be photographed for highway mapping. The aerial camera to be used has a lens of focal length 12 in and takes 9×9 inches photographs. The ground elevation varies from a low of 800.00 ft to a high of 1050.00 ft above mean sea level. The plane has to make one flight line and the average width of the photographic coverage is to be 1650.00 ft. What will be the average scale of the photographs? What flying height, above mean sea level, should be used for this flight? If it is specified that the overlap (end lap) between photos be 60% and that 2 extra exposures be added at each end of the flight line, find how many photographs will be required.
