Claim:
An image processing computer system for a photogrammetric analytical measurement in which a survey map is produced by connecting a first group of pictures and a second group of pictures, said system comprising: a monitor that displays a first scene, said monitor including a picture-display area and an editing-display area; a first monitor controller that selectively displays only one picture in each of said first group and said second group, on said picture-display area of said first scene; a second monitor controller that transfers a displayed picture from said picture-display area to said editing-display area and vice versa; and a third monitor controller that visually displays a connection relationship between pictures displayed on said editing-display area of said first scene; wherein said first group comprises pictures featuring a photographed target located at a first target position and said second group comprises pictures featuring the photographed target located at a second target position; and wherein said image processing computer system is configured to produce a survey map by representing objects, in the displayed pictures that have the connection relationship, in a three-dimensional coordinate system that is based on at least one of the first target position and the second target position.
