<strong>Guidelines</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Best</strong> <strong>Practice</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Quality</strong> <strong>Checking</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Ortho</strong> <strong>Imagery</strong> – Issue 3.0 Page 36Stereoscopic Model(or Stereomodel)Tie pointsToleranceWarpingWell-defined point( x − x)ni∑i= 1 n −12For small samples (n < 30) this is not the same as the rms error. If there is nosystematic error, st<strong>and</strong>ard deviation is equal to the RMSE <strong>for</strong> large samples.Three-dimensional model created by viewing or analysing the overlapping area <strong>of</strong>two images obtained from different positions.Points that appear on the overlap area <strong>of</strong> adjacent images. They are used <strong>for</strong>orientation <strong>and</strong> aerotriangulationor block processing. In general are notmeasured on the ground <strong>and</strong> only image coordinates are usedThe tolerance is the permissible degree <strong>of</strong> error in a geometrically correctedimage or mosaic as determined using a well distributed set <strong>of</strong> check points.Tolerance is specified with one value: the maximum allowable RMS error <strong>of</strong> allcheck pointsSynonym <strong>for</strong> Polynomial RectificationA well-defined point represents a feature <strong>for</strong> which the horizontal position isknown to a high degree <strong>of</strong> accuracy <strong>and</strong> position with respect to the geodeticdatum. For the purpose <strong>of</strong> accuracy testing, well-defined points must be easilyvisible or recoverable on the ground, on the independent source <strong>of</strong> higheraccuracy, <strong>and</strong> on the product itself.FGDC, 1998
