Guide to Magellan Image
Interpretation
Figure 4-2. Solving for heights using
opposite-side stereo images. The procedure is similar to that used
for same-side images. Here the parallax, s, is equal to
d2 -
d1.
Using the incidence angles of the two observations (
and 
), height h of
the feature is obtained by dividing s by the parallax-to-height ratio
(cot + cot ).
