PCT No. PCT/SU89/00093 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 18, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 18, 1989 PCT Filed Apr. 14, 1989 PCT Pub. No. WO89/10537 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 2, 1989.The invention relates to the stereophotogrammetry. A coordinate grid is made in the form of a support (1) carrying a stereophotograph of an image of one or more groups of straight lines (4) converging at a main point (3) and closed lines interconnecting them. The latter, according to the invention, are essentially circles (5) the centers of which are offset relatively the point (3) in one and the same radial direction by an amount of the parallax corresponding to the camera-to-object distance which is represented by the circle circumscribed from this center. The lines (4) and the circles (5) are made in the form of dash lines. The lengths of and the intervals between the dash lines, and the radii of the circles (5) determine the value of a grid division. The dash lines may be made colored and in each group of the lines the dashes have an individual color. The coordinate grid is mainly designed for use in stereoscopes for measuring stereophotographs of an object image.
