Examples of photometry
photometry
Stellar photometry came into use in 1861 as a means of measuring stellar colors.
From the en.wikipedia.org
One typically speaks of performing differential, relative or absolute photometry.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Photometry deals with the measurement of visible light as perceived by human eyes.
From the en.wikipedia.org
The methods used to perform photometry depend on the wavelength regime under study.
From the en.wikipedia.org
Which calibrations are needed depend in part on what type of photometry is being done.
From the en.wikipedia.org
A photodiode can be used in solar cells, in photometry, or in optical communications.

However, photometry does at least allow a qualitative characterization of a redshift.

- Measurement of the properties of light (especially luminous intensity)
- (photometrical) photometric: of or relating to photometry
- Photometry is a technique of astronomy concerned with measuring the flux, or intensity of an astronomical object's electromagnetic radiation. ...
- Photometry is the science of the measurement of light, in terms of its perceived brightness to the human eye. ...
- (Photometries) The study of light, especially color.
- Branch of observational astronomy in which intensity measurements are made through each of a set of standard filters.
- Photometry is the term used for the study of light emitted by a star or other astronomical object. This brightness is generally defined in absolute terms.
- Making measurements from images. One example is creating a 3D scene description using stereo image analysis, and measuring the volume of an object in the model.
- In astronomy, the measurement of the light emitting from astronomical objects, generally in the visible or infrared bands, in which a specific or general wavelength band is normally specified. An excellent reference on this topic is Astronomical Photometry: A Guide, by C. Sterken and J. ...
