Patent ID: 7787659

Claim:
A computerized system for displaying, geolocating, and making measurements based upon captured oblique images, comprising: a computer system executing image display and analysis software reading: a plurality of captured oblique images; geo-location data corresponding to said plurality of captured oblique images; and tessellated ground plane data that closely approximates at least a portion of the terrain depicted within said captured oblique images, said tessellated ground plane data being indicative of a plurality of interconnected facets with the size of the facets defined using a uniform number of pixels in the captured oblique images; and wherein the image display and analysis software when executed by the computer system causes the computer system to display one of the captured and geo-located oblique images and calculate a geo-location of one or more selected points within said displayed image, said software causing the computer system to calculate a separation distance between any two or more selected points within said displayed image.
