[edit] Fixed dimension tables
So you have just found a photograph of an asset that is a must have for your route. But the problem is, that there are no dimensions to start with. However, as it happens, at least in some times, places, and applications, that certain dimensions are common enough that they are almost standard. These dimensions can be used as a starting point to at least make reasonable estimates of other dimensions.
