straight linear features or formulated entities such as conic sections, which are accommodatingelements, other than points that are adopted instead of points in aerialtriangulation.Even though recent advanced algorithms provide accurate and reliable linear featureextraction, extracting linear features is more difficult than extracting a discreteset of points which can consist of any form of curves. Control points which are theinitial input data, and break points which are end points of piecewise curves, areeasily obtained <strong>with</strong> manual digitizing, edge operators or interest operators. A curvecan be represented analytically by seed points which are extracted automatically bythe point extraction in digital imagery.Employing high level features increases the feasibility of geometric informationand provides an analytical and suitable solution for the advanced computer technology.With the development of extraction, segmentation, classification and recognitionof features, the input data for feature-based photogrammetry has been expandedto increase redundancy of aerial triangulation. Since the identification, formulationand application of reasonable linear features is a crucial procedure for autonomousphotogrammetry, the higher order geometric feature-based modeling plays an importantrole in modern digital photogrammetry. The digital image format is suited toautonomous photogrammetry’s purpose, especially the feature extraction and measurement,and it is useful for precise and rigorous modeling of features from images.1.2 Scope of dissertationOver the years, many researchers have investigated the feasibility of linear featuresto autonomous photogrammetry, but the modeling of linear features are limited into7
