1. A method for the photogrammetrical pick up of an object, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a transparent master having present thereon an image in analog form; (b) covering the entire image with a reseau having a predetermined point array marked thereon on which divides the reseau into a pattern of discrete, contiguous meshes, defined by a coordinate system; (c) serially imaging, at least one mesh at a time, the reseau and the image area underlying each mesh to provide a series of partial analog images including the reseau points and analog image portions from each mesh; (d) opto-electrically converting from analog to digital the analog images of said partial-images to provide corresponding digital partial-images which include the reseau points; (e) correlating the reseau points in each of said digital partial-images with the predetermined positions of said points in said point array to provide transformation parameters; and (f) converting the digital partial-images into a total image by applying said transformation parameters.
