arXiv:2605.26475v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-based metric distance and area measurement remains challenging in large-scale outdoor environments due to long-range sensing, camera zoom, and unstable imaging conditions. This work studies planar metric measurement in a real-world reservoir monitoring scenario using PTZ cameras and compares three representative approaches: geometry-based monocular ranging, image stitching with birds-eye-view transformation, and stereo-based ranging using two jointly calibrated monocular cameras. For monocular ranging, planar localization models are deri
