Off-the-Wall Project Brings Aerial Mapping Down to Earth

摘要

The technology of aerial photography, photogram-metry, has widespread applications in mapping and aerial surveying. A multibillion-dollar industry, aerial surveying and mapping is "big business" in both civilian and military sectors. While the industry has grown increasingly automated, employment opportunities still exist for people with a basic appreciation for the technology, who often receive final training on the job. It's a great field to introduce to technology students.
