摘要:The comprehensive analysis of new digital airborne photogrammetric camera systems is an important topic right now. Faster than originally expected the new digital sensors phased into market and are already used in production processes. Furthermore, some national mapping agencies or system flyers have already decided to exclusively use digital imagers in future and already started to sell their analogue cameras and analogue film developing equipment. Still, the performance of individual systems in specific applications is not fully proven, which emphasises the need for empirical tests and detailed investigations. The EuroSDR organization also focused on this topic of digital camera calibration and validation. About three projects have been done or still are under investigation, one focusing on the analysis of geometric large-format digital camera performance, the second dealing with radiometric aspects of large-format cameras, and the third focusing on medium-format based camera systems. The main results and status of these technology driven projects are given in the paper. All these technical investigations finally culminate in the new EuroSDR initiative on European Digital Airborne Camera Certification (EuroDAC2) which is also introduced in the paper. The development, current situation and upcoming activities are described. Since the EuroDAC2 project is still underway, the paper only gives a short snapshot illustrating the situation at the time of paper compilation
