The process of creating a composite image by joining multiple photographs taken from the same camera station is called what?

• A. Trimetrogon Photograph
• B. Terrestrial Photogrammetry
• C. Extraterrestrial Photograph
• D. Composite Photograph

Answer: (D)

Joining overlapping photos taken from the same camera station to form one continuous image is called a composite photograph. This term captures the idea of stitching multiple frames into a single representation, often used to increase coverage and detail across the mapped area. A trimetrogon photograph refers to a specific three-camera aerial setup capturing vertical and oblique views, not just a stitched mosaic. Terrestrial photogrammetry describes measurements taken from ground-based photos, a broader technique rather than the act of creating a single joined image. An extraterrestrial photograph is not relevant.
