Hi Stefan,

Thanks for the links. From reading the threads and other links below (and links 
therein) it seems like your summary is correct. Except the Kelly thesis and the 
Neteler (2005) paper show oblique photos (extreme oblique in the thesis). It is 
a shame this doesn't seem present in GRASS 7, but it is easy enough to work in 
6.4 when necessary.

I'm going to look into this more and will write back if I make progress. I 
would appreciate the same from you. Feel free to contact me off list if you 
prefer.

I'm also looking into PRACTISE http://www.geosci-model-dev.net/9/307/2016/ and 
ImGRAFT http://imgraft.glaciology.net/ The latter doesn't work off-the-shelf in 
Octave, but perhaps the former will, which would be a nice solution. These two 
tools work in high-relief terrain, which the Kelly thesis mentions and 
demonstrates also.

  -k.
