ABSTRACT:
An interferometer causes a reference beam and a subject beam reflected from a roof surface to interfere with each other to form an interference fringe, which is detected by an image detecting element in its measuring area. Detection data from the image detecting element is processed by an image processing circuit, and then subjected to phase difference detection. A continuous function is determined as an approximation to a relationship between phase data and unit measuring areas located in a direction perpendicular to a line corresponding to a ridge line of the roof surface. A analysis relating to a roof angle is performed based on the continuous function thus determined.
