Though the increment of using computer vision system in modern industry, there are lots of difficulties to measure precisely because of measurement error distortion phenomenon. Among these reasons, the distortion of edge is dominant reason which is occurred by the blurred image. The blurred image is happened when camera can not discriminate its precise focus. To calibrate and generalize distortion phenomenon is important. Thus, we must fix the discrimination criteria which is collected by image recognition of precise focus. Also, radial distortion causes an inward or outward displacement of a given image point from its ideal location. This type of distortion is mainly caused by flawed radial curvature curve of the elements. Thus, we were analyzed the distortion in terms of the changed with lens magnification.

Lens distortion would produce image displacement, therefore correction of lens distortion is required urgently to improve accuracy of results in photogrammetry. The objective of this study is to find out lens distortion coefficients versus focussing distance on non-metric and metric camera and to investigate propriety of application of lens distortion coefficients to three dimensional analysis. Analytical plumb line method which needs not perform control survey and space resection and requires only one photograph was used in order to get lens distortion coefficients. As the result of this study, the coefficients of radial and tangential distortion change as focussing distance changes, and consequently it is reasonable to apply the eigenvalues of lens distortion coefficients according to focussing distance. When these coefficients were applied to actual measurement, standard errors decreased about 30% or 76% remarkably.

In this paper, we propose a method that measures the height and stagger of an catenary using the laser profile images. One line laser and area scanner CCD cameras are used. To quickly and accurately extract, from a photographed image, the area of the overhead line on which the line laser is shone, we consider the established fact that the catenary is the lowest among the electric wires. Here we are solving the the distance to the catenary if we know the distance the camera is from the ground and the angle of the catenary in the field of view. The angle will be related to the number of pixels in the image. This pixels per degree is a constant for the camera. Also, because of the different pixel resolution of the camera according to the overhead line position, we compensate the measurement result through camera calibration.
