Hi Michael, To do get a good result you've got to calculate a othofotomosaic. Good software to do this are agisoft photoscan or bentley context capture. Only thing which is important for those programms: your images have to have 60% / 60% or more overlap! Regards superspack

Sorry, I don´t have any good literature about this topic...

Hi, you have got to use the digital camera definition! By using this you do not have to specify the fiducial marks. Instead you have to know the focal distance (found in your photos metadata), the cell size of each pixel (found in the cameras description) and the lens distortion with the PPA or PPS. THose last values probabely you have to calculate by using the lens distortion parameter in the aerotriangulation (block adjustment / or ORMIA which is far better).

Hi maunaloa, what your are experencing is actually not a license issue but just a normal ArcScene limitation! As a matter of fact ArcScene does not support Terrain-files but just TIN-files. Try opening a TIN and everything will be perfect. If you want to visualize a terrain-file in 3D, open ArcGlobe and try it there. This will work. Here some quote from the ESRI-dektop help: "By default, terrain layers cannot be directly displayed or used as elevation sources in ArcScene. If you want to consume terrain data in ArcScene, you will need to export your area of interest to either a raster or a TIN." Ok have a lot of fun! :grin:
