1) Infers theoretical precision of satellite stereophotogrammetry, then take SPOT5 HRS for example, calculates its theoretical precision and some analysis has been made.

2) The direct Linear Transformation Method in stereophotogrammetry is described in this paper.

3) Objective:To study the application of stereophotogrammetry for three dimensional facial soft tissue morphometry.

4) In stereophotogrammetry, without knowing the exterior and interior orientation parameters, we can obtain the necessary information (the shape, size and position of an object...

5) Results:The stereophotogrammetry method is precise enough for three dimensional facial soft tissue morphometry.

6) Methods:To establish a three dimensional soft tissue facial morphometry system with digital camera and stereophotogrammetry method.

7) The experiments also prove that the formula of satellite stereophotogrammetry is right, and it can be applied to estimate theoretical precision of other satellite stereophotogrammetry.
