        I believe you might find good use of CurviLoft: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=28586

        (btw, you can upload photos directly to the forum. See the Upload Attachment tab under the textbox when you make a post or reply. then you also get a thumbnail in your post.)

          Based on these photos only tgi3d calibration tool reports a relative dimensional uncertainty of around 5 percent (not acceptable for most applications). (Need more features and/or more photos of the same set up to get more accurate dimensions). You can look at the calibrated scene yourself.
