Abstract

Photogrammetry systems vary in accuracy with distance, report an internal estimate of precision rather than accuracy, and have no standard way of defining performance – which, the authors argue, leaves them less mature than other measurement systems. The talk sets out what a verification method would have to satisfy, beginning with being practical enough to actually carry out.
