How to Create a Virtual Mountain with a Map, Compass and Camera

Archaeologists mostly have very specific requirements when interested in digital terrain models. Niche solutions are in demand when common ways and means do not meet these requirements. The vectorization of contour lines in paper maps is a proven method of data acquisition. Terrestrial stereophotogrammetry is another method that provides a huge amount of up-to-date data. Moreover, it reduces the time of necessary fieldwork to a minimum. The present paper explains how to combine these two methods for a digital terrain model. Key words: digital terrain model, terrestrial stereophotogrammetr
