A photogrammetric camera, in particular for photogrammetric measurements of technical objects, has a primary lens system (10) designed as a focussable objective and a combination of at least one high-resolution sensor (12, 14, 16) and a lens unit (18, 20, 22) which acts as a secondary lens system for producing an enlarged section of the focal plane of the primary objective on the high-resolution sensor. The secondary objective and the high-resolution sensor are movable across the optical axis (26) of the primary objective. High-resolution distance measurement devices (28, 30) which detect the distance between the projection center of the secondary objective and a reference point of the high-resolution sensor on the one hand and the optical axis of the primary objective on the other hand are associated to the secondary objective and to the high-resolution sensor.
A photogrammetric camera for airborne or spaceborne terrain recording includes several electro-optical sensors that can be arranged at a distance from each other in the flight direction. The electro-optical sensors scan the overflown terrain and record each scanned terrain region at least twice from a respectively different perspective. At least two surface detectors are provided as the electro-optical sensors.
