DSD PC-Rect v3

Photographs and videos oblique to a surface are
transformated into a plan view like a map. Scanners and
digital cameras can be used directly from within the program
so the rectification of any kind of picture is
possible Distances can be measured true to scale and true
to angle.Up to 10 different reference lengths can be used
for rectification. All camera parameters (like camera
inclination rotation focal length and camera height) are
calculated in an optimization process using the reference
lengths. A drawing program to make road sketches and an
accident scene description is included.

Rectification of Photographs Rectification is the
transformation of a photograph oblique to a surface into a
plan view like a map. The program allows the user to
rectify photographs of surfaces which are close to being
planar such as roadway surfaces at accident scenes.

Video-Rectification With PC Rect 3.0 also the handle of
videos is enabled Der Videofilm wird in PC-Rect 3.0
bearbeitet. The process is in principle the same as in the
preceding versions. The video must be divided into
individual pictures which are continuous numbered. A
cut-out has to be selected and reference distances have to
be defined.

A drawing program to make road sketches and an accident
scene description is included. For video rectification we
recommend digital camera with progressive scan mode.

Result of Both Methods Distances can be measured true to
scale and true to angle.Up to 10 different reference lengths
can be used for rectification. All common bitmap formats
are supported for import and export of scanned photographs
and rectified pictures (Gif Tif Jpeg Bmp PCS EPS Photo
CD) or videos as AVI files Direct use of the 4 points
method is supported Rectification errors are calculated
and can be printed in a protocol form. All camera
parameters (like camera inclination rotation focal length
and camera height) are calculated in an optimization process
using the reference lengths. Scanners and digital cameras
can be used directly from within the program using the Twain
interface. An additional scanning software is not
necessary.
