3D Measurements of Apollo 14 Landing Site

(NASA) - Can we measure the size and shape of equipment and other objects on the moon using orbital images from the current Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter mission?

As an example, to demonstrate the precise 3D measurement capability of the LROC instrument's stereo imagery, three objects and the astronauts' footpaths at the Apollo 14 landing site are measured and their 3D models reconstructed.


In the zoomed image below, the lunar module can be identified by its deck (red points) and distinct [...]
