The Determination of the Direction of Movement on Glacier Surfaces by Terrestrial Photogrammetry
In order to determine longitudinal profiles of movement on glacier surfaces from photogrammetric surveys, it is necessary to know the direction of movement. The present method requires at least two base lines with overlapping ranges of photographs. The establishment of a base-line system for a given...
