Station Point

The place where the eye of the viewer is when the object is being viewed. The station point or spectator point (SP) is the position at which the observer's eye is located. The station point is of great importance as on this the general appearance of the perspective depends. For large objects the station point is taken as the eye level of a person of normal height, while for small objects this may vary depending on the view required. This distance of SP is taken as double the maximum measurement of the object to be drawn.
