Definition of photogrammetry according to K. Schindler and W. Förstner:
“Photogrammetry is the science and technology of obtaining information about the physical environment from images, with a focus on applications in surveying, mapping and high-precision metrology. The aim of photogrammetry is to provide automated or semi-automated procedures for these engineering tasks, with emphasis on a specified accuracy, reliability, and completeness of the information.”
