In an aerial photography project, the distance between flight lines is 4903ft. and the interval between exposures is 2441ft.
- If the flight lines are to be plotted on 1:50000 scale topographic map. Determine the map distance in centimeters between flight lines.
- If the exposures are to be plotted on 1:50000 scale topographic map. Determine the map distance in centimeters between photographs.
- If the flight lines are to be plotted on 1:10000 scale topographic map. Determine the map distance in centimeters between flight lines.
