There are some alternatives
![Page 7: The Smartphone D-tape](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070504/56816761550346895ddc3732/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Close-range photogrammetric approaches• Stereo photographs with known center-point distances• Vanishing Point Horizon with laser pointer• Dual lasers with known laser distance• An alternative

Criteria• Fast• Accurate• Repeatable• Cheap• Automated

Smartphone• Decent high resolution camera• App development easy and cheaply distributed• Compact, and since most everyone has one, not an additional piece of
equipment

Goal• Take two photos, with random phone movement (distance, rotation
and yawl)• From these two photos determine:• Camera shift• {X,Y,Z} coordinates• Estimate DBH

Two photos

The “Fundamental” Matrix
![Page 15: The Smartphone D-tape](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022070504/56816761550346895ddc3732/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Coincident Photos
Add the DBH line, map the pixels from one photo to the other

DBH Estimate• OLS solution to the Fundamental Equation• Camera Focal Length and Camera Aspect Ratio used to convert from
pixels to real world coordinates• DBH estimated from 3D coordinate distances• Include inclination angle for upper stem diameters (Grosenbaugh
1963)
