Creating Tie Points from Identifiable Locations on the Terrain

To create a tie point from a specific location on the terrain:

1.     On the Home tab, in the Add group, click the arrow under Control Points and select Create Tie Point from Terrain.

2.     Click in the 3D Window to define the tie point’s position. The Control Point Editor is displayed with the Photos panel populated by photos whose frustum intersects with the tie point created. 

3.     Mark the tie point in the relevant photos. See "Marking Control Points in Photos" in this chapter for information. The Sampled Photos panel gradually becomes populated with photo thumbnails as you mark the tie point in photos.
