A PC - BASED SOLUTION FOR COMPUTER AIDED PHOTOGRAMMETRIC MAPPING ON ANALOG STEREOPLOTTERS

摘要

The development of the computer aided photogrammetric restitution in Yugoslavia during last decade has been conditioned by the following facts: procurement of the analytical instruments was impossible; analog stereoplotters still in good operating condition are dominant; utilization of the PC technology is extensive. In such circumstances decision has been made at the Laboratory for Photogrammetry at Faculty of Civil Engineering in Belgrade to rely on the original, self-styled development of computer aided restitution based on instruments with mechanical construction and PC technology. The review of that development, the acquired experiences and the basic characteristics of the developed software are presented in the paper. All implemented solutions are completely in compliance with the modern software development, which means an open software that increasingly independent from the hardware. Special attention is paid to the significance of the original development concerning GIS/LIS development in Yugoslavia and education of personnel acquainted with digital technology.
