Summary: | The presentation focuses on the benefits, limitations, and applications of aerial photography, geodetic control surveys, and photogrammetric mapping. Participants learn about various aerial photo and photogrammetry products and how the products are used throughout the Commonwealth for various applications.
This presentation does not focus on technical details or the technical process of photogrammetry, but instead is given from the end-user’s point-of-view. From the Surveyor who is tasked with gathering data to the Design or Liaison Engineer concerned with overall projects, photogrammetry is presented as a tool to help meet the participants’ challenges.
