Abstract: Disclosed is a digital line scan camera, having at least at least one focal plane, on which at least one linear photosensitive sensor is arranged, an objective lens, and a location measurement system. The location measurement system is used to determine six external location parameters, where the location system measurement comprises a satellite-supported position determination device and an inertial navigation measurement unit. The line scan camera includes at least on two-dimensional photosensitive sensor, which is synchronously driven with the linear sensor. At least one displacement vector ({right arrow over (x)}) is calculated from the data of the minimum of one two-dimensional photosensitive sensor, and where the displacement vector ({right arrow over (x)}) is used to correct the date of the inertial measurement unit.

Abstract: A focal plane assembly for an optical sensor system, includes at least two photosensitive components and a focal plane plate, on which the photosensitive components are mounted. The focal plane plate is formed out of a number of modules, where the photosensitive components are distributed over the modules and connected to them, and where the individual modules are mounted in a common focal plane frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stereo camera (1) for digital photogrammetry, comprising an input optical system (2) and optical detectors which are arranged in the focal plane (3) and whose output signals are processed in an evaluation device (6) to form image information, in which device from a multiplicity of optical detectors in the focal plane (3) in each case at least two of the optical detectors can be driven together as a function of advance information, stored in a storage medium, from the object to be photographed in order to set a desired stereo angle.
