dc.description.abstractThe use of consumer cameras fitted with extreme wide angle (EWA) lenses for photogrammetric measurement is increasing. Conventional modelling of EWA systems relies on the pinhole camera model and up to five radial lens distortion terms. Aiming to reduce model complexity, this paper reports an investigation into an alternate approach using fisheye lens models for EWA systems, despite them not falling strictly into to the fisheye category. Four fisheye models were tested on four different cameras under laboratory conditions. The self-calibration results show superior model fit for all fisheye models over the pinhole plus radial model in terms of residual RMS. The number radial distortion of terms required for the fisheye models was lower in all cases, so model complexity was reduced. Independent assessment revealed very similar 3D reconstruction accuracy for all models. The results suggest that fisheye modelling is an advantageous alternative for EWA lens systems.en_US
