- A flagpole appears in two successive photographs taken at an altitude of 2,000 m above datum. The focal length of the camera is 120 mm and the Length of the air base is 200 m. The parallax for the top of the pole is 52,52 mm and for the bottom is 48,27 mm. Find the difference in elevation between the top and the bottom of the pole.arrow_forwardA camera with a focal length of 20 cm fitted in an aircraft is used for taking vertical aerial photographs of a terrain.
