PHOTOGRAMMETRIC AND GEODETIC MAP REVISION FOR BOGAZKALE ARCHAEOLOGICAL EXCAVATION FIELD

The aim of the project is to revise the map of Bogazkale Archaeological Excavation Field by means of geodetic and photogrammetric methods. According to the plan which is prepared for taking photographs; a preliminary study done at Bogazkale Archaeological  Field. Control points are painted on the rocks.  Photographs were taken by SMK 120 stereo photogrammetric camera. Photographs are evaluated at İ.T.Ü. Engineering Faculty Photogrammetry Laboratory by means of B8S analytical photogrammetric instrument.  A PC based Digital photogrammetric software PICTRAN was used for evaluation. 

Camera calibration is made according to bundle adjustment and photographs that were taken without approximate values of orientation parameters, are scanned and oriented. Points are measured on oriented photographs and point coordinates are determined by means at intersected homologous rays.  According to the project appropriateness, Digital Terrain Model (DTM) of Boğazkale Archaeological Field as obtained by the help of software, which is developed by the Photogrammetry Division. Information, which was produced in Pictran software, is afterwards transferred into AUTOCAD system.
