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.
Q4/ Assume that a vertical photograph was taken at a flying height of 5000 m above sea level using a camera with a 152-mm-focal-length lens.
