ortofotoihin
Ortofotoihin, often translated as orthophotos, are aerial or satellite images that have been geometrically corrected to remove distortions caused by camera tilt, terrain relief, and perspective. Unlike standard aerial photographs, orthophotos represent a true-to-scale map, meaning that measurements of distance, area, and shape can be accurately taken from them. This geometric correction is achieved through a process called orthorectification, which uses a digital elevation model (DEM) of the terrain to adjust the image.
The creation of orthophotos involves several steps. First, aerial or satellite imagery is captured. This raw
Orthophotos have a wide range of applications. They are invaluable in cartography for creating accurate maps,
