Flying Height of Airplane above Datum Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Flying Height of Airplane = ((Focal Length of Lens/Photo Scale)+Elevation of Point)
H = ((f_len/P)+h₁)
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Flying Height of Airplane - (Measured in Meter) - Flying height of airplane above datum (usually mean sea level) is defined as the average flying height above ground.
Focal Length of Lens - (Measured in Meter) - Focal Length of Lens is usually represented in millimeters (mm), is the basic description of a photographic lens.
Photo Scale - Photo scale is determined by the focal length of the camera and the flying height above the ground.
Elevation of Point - (Measured in Meter) - Elevation of point, line, or area with respect to datum.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Focal Length of Lens: 4.2 Meter --> 4.2 Meter No Conversion Required
Photo Scale: 2.1 --> No Conversion Required
Elevation of Point: 9 Meter --> 9 Meter No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

H = ((f_len/P)+h₁) --> ((4.2/2.1)+9)

Evaluating ... ...

H = 11

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

11 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

11 Meter <-- Flying Height of Airplane

(Calculation completed in 00.098 seconds)

How does photogrammetry work?

Photogrammetry works by analyzing photographs of an object or area from multiple angles and using triangulation to calculate the distance and position of each point in the image. This information is then used to create a 3D model or map of the object or area.
