_____________ is the art and science of using imagery to make measurements
photogrammetry
42
What are the two types of projections?
Central and Orthographic
43
What is Central Projection?
relative projection of an object on the image based on the location of the sensor.
44
What is Orthographic Projection?
objects located on an image are in the same position relative to each other on the ground.
45
_____________ is the process to correct imagery error by removing the effects of tils and displacement.
Orthorectification
46
the link between geodesy photogrammetry and target development
Metadata

What are the two components of Imagery Interpretation?
Obliquity and Look Angle
49
Component of Imagery Interpretation that when objects are represented at a look angle that distorts details necessary for image analysis.
Obliquity
50
Component of Imagery Interpretation that is the angular relationship between sensor/observer and the target
