A S R i x - Digital Image Rectifier

What is a rectifier?

A rectifier starts with a photographic image of an object then, based on measurements which define a plane on this object, adjusts the image to conform to the measurements in such a way that features on that plane can be accurately scaled.

Benefits of Rectification

Fast recording of an object, just photographs and a few measurements
Detailed measurements can be obtained from the rectified image
Elevations, streetscapes and photo mosaics can be created easily.

What is ASRix?

ASRix takes the basic rectifier functionality a step further by adding:

The ability to use 3D coordinate systems as well as the conventional 2D
Direct reading of database files and compatibility with the data output of modern survey equipment.
An interface with AutoCAD (R14 & above) allowing the creation of 3D photo mosaics
Camera Calibration to correct the distortion of even the shortest focal length lenses.

Input Requirements

Digital image (scanned or CCD) in BMP, TIFF or JPEG formats
A minimum of 4 measurements (either 2D or 3D) on each plane to be processed

From this it produces a Rectified Digital Image that can be plotted to scale, inserted into an AutoCAD drawing or passed to any image processor for annotation.

Benefits of ASRix

Fast recording of an object, just photographs and a few measurements
Detailed measurements can be obtained from the rectified image
Integrated Camera Calibration
Direct integration with survey instrument downloads
Reliability of each point can be displayed

The latest HELP on-line

Beware: this is all Beta stuff.

There ARE bugs in it and the help reflects no existing release. Furthermore I can't promise much support as the executables are changing daily. But a lot of it works and may be useful to someone. If it is I'd like your feedback as we inch our way towards a release.
