GIS-29

Total Length:

120 minutes



Intermap 6487 Image Station - Intergraph Digital Photogrammetric Workstation

Reference No:

GIS 29-1

The presentation outlines the aim and potential applications, as well as the hardware/software configurations of Intergraph's IMD. The user-friendliness, the modular structure of the software, and the appropriate input/output devices are important aspects of this system. Integration of digital photogrammetry and GIS is also discussed.

Softcopy Photogrammetry for Resource Mapping and Map Revision

Reference No:

GIS 29-2

Since most resource inventories and base maps are now stored in GIS's, it is advantageous to update the database from digital images directly in this environment. A hybrid GIS Computer Aided Resource Information System with Raster Image Extension (CARIS/RIX) was developed at the University of New Brunswick, which incorporates analytical photogrammetric and digital image processing tools to facilitate softcopy mapping. The presentation discusses CARIS as a tool for the exploitation of digital images as a data source.

State-of-the-art in Digital Photgrammetric Workstations

Reference No:

GIS 29-3

A detailed overview of the most important technical achievements of recent years, as well as an examination of the developments in which the author has been personally involved. Out of a 45-year-career in photogrammetry, U.V. Haleva has spent over 35 years in developing photogrammetric instruments-the last ten, trying to cast them into the form of digital workstations. Reasons are also given for the expectation that "the photogrammetric workstation will disappear as a specially designed entity".

Evaluation of Digital Photogrammetric Systems

Reference No:

GIS 29-4

The main issue in the evolution of softcopy photogrammetry is the use of digital imagery on a computer platform, resulting in a transition from the conventional analog-analytical stereo plotting machines into digital photogrammetric workstations. This presentation discusses the status of the digital photogrammetric systems industry, reviewing data acquisition mechanisms, matching techniques, hardware configuration and software capabilities, visualization and user interfaces. Current issues and future needs for research and development.
