1. A method to automatically generate, from an acquired image, a set of points comprising a three dimensional representation of a scene of interest such that each point in said generated set of points corresponds to an actual point in said actual scene of interest, where said acquired image depicts an actual scene of interest and wherein said actual scene of interest contains at least one actual object of interest, said method comprising the steps of: a. applying actual calibration markings to actual object of interest oriented with said actual scene of interest, said actual calibration markings oriented so as to include at least one actual horizontal and at least one actual vertical line such that said actual vertical line and said actual horizontal line intersect to form an actual plane; b. acquiring image of said scene of interest, where said acquired image includes image of said actual object of interest and image of said actual applied calibration markings, comprising imaged vertical calibration markings and imaged horizontal calibration markings, inclusive; c. selecting from said image of said scene of interest said imaged calibration markings along at least one vertical line; d. determining coordinates of said imaged vertical calibration markings along at least one vertical line; e. determining the best fit line passing through said imaged vertical calibration markings along at least one said vertical line; f. determining, by means of said imaged vertical calibration markings, the scale of said image of said object of interest with respect to said actual object of interest; g. selecting from said image of said scene of interest said imaged calibration markings along at least one horizontal line; h. determining coordinates of said imaged horizontal calibration markings along at least one horizontal line; i. determining the best fit line passing through said imaged horizontal calibration markings along at least one said horizontal line; j. determining, by means of said imaged horizontal calibration markings, the scale of said image of said object of interest with respect to said actual object of interest; k. determining, by means of data obtained from steps c through j, said coordinates and said scaling of said imaged calibration markings along at least one said vertical line and said imaged horizontal calibration markings along at least one said horizontal line, corresponding actual coordinates of said actual plane in said actual scene of interest; l. repeating steps c through k for any additional actual planes represented in said acquired image corresponding to said one or more actual objects of interest in said actual scene of interest; m. outputting results from steps b through l where said output results provide a generated set of points comprising a three dimensional representation of said scene of interest such that each point in said generated set of points corresponds to an actual point in said actual scene of interest, whereas such said output results enable, with respect to any user selected points within said acquired image of said scene of interest, the calculation and display of the actual distance between the actual points corresponding to said selected points within said acquired image.
