Photosimulation Methodology Statement Photos were taken with a fixed lens on DSLR camera. Locations were fixed using a handheld GPS unit with accuracy of 5m. Reference points in the landscape were also located to assist referencing of photo to digital terrain model. A sequence of photos was taken from each viewpoint and stitched to form panoramas. Photos were overlapped by approximately 30% and edges cropped prior to stitching to eliminate edge distortion. A digital terrain model was created incorporating 3D models of the proposed development. Computer images were generated within the digital model from the same locations as the photos. The image was overlaid and aligned with the photo using reference points and visual matching. (Photos were imported in RAW format to avoid degradation of the image, requiring resizing to match the computer image). The wire-frame digital terrain was then switched off leaving the proposed development in its correct location and scale relative to the photo. Lower parts of the proposed development were erased using Photoshop software where they would be behind foreground topography or vegetation. The time and weather when the photo was taken was entered to the programme in order to replicate lighting conditions. The completed photomontage is presented over two pages: o o The photos are produced to replicate correct scale at the nominated reading distance (in this case 400mm). Each photomontage is printed across two facing pages to illustrate a field of view of approximately 110 at a reading distance of 400mm. This approximates the field of human binocular vision. (But not peripheral vision which extends to approximately 200 ) Notes on use of Photosimulations: Figure 02: Binocular vision is approximately 124. Field of view is approximately 110 across 2 x A3 pages at correct scale image for 400mm reading distance (vertical field of view is approximately 33 ) The Photosimulations are a useful tool but they cannot not precisely reproduce real life for the following reasons: o 2D Photography flattens an image compared to binocular vision. o Photography is static, whereas the human vision can scan and remember information. o Photographs are passive, whereas the eye seeks out detail. o The human eye can see more contrast than can be reproduced through photography. o Physical resolution of photography and printing is less than that of the human eye. 400mm reading distance Figure 03: Comparison of 35mm lens and 50mm lens Two images from the same location. With 35mm and 50mm lenses perspective is influenced by field of view, not by lens focal length. The overlaid portion is identical. Photo Simulation Methodology P59
