摘要：In architectural photogrammetry the production of facade plans or 3D models is usually one of the most importantpoints of interest. The disregard of roofs is partly caused by the lack of appropriate image acquisition methods. In orderto overcome these drawback a new image acquisition system has been developed. This aerial vehicle consists of a radiocontrolled model helicopter including a special designed camera mount which is an integrated part of the landing skid.The camera mount is designed for amateur cameras as well as for professional cameras and for digital video camerasand can be tilted radio controlled. In addition, a separate small CCD-Camera looking through the view finder and avideo link including video transmitter, video receiver and ground-monitor are used to provide an in-flight control ofimage contents and to control the shutter release. In order to check the applicability of the helicopter forphotogrammetric purposes, a historical mill was chosen as a test object. The mill itself is a rather complex building withan inner courtyard. For this pilot project 82 terrestrial photographs, taken with a digital camera, were combined with 38photographs taken from the model helicopter. The photogrammetric measurements were made using the newphotogrammetric plotting software ORPHEUS. This paper describes the application of the new helicopter system forarchitectural photogrammetry and the production of a high-quality 3D photo model. Special emphasis is laid on thedescription of the new helicopter platform and the software used for photogrammetric plotting.
