Abstract

Practitioners who wish to construct and maintain an urban, local or national geographic information system (GIS) or Land Information System (LIS) face the difficult and complex problem of data capture. Images have for a long time been major information sources for topographic mapping of large areas and creating base maps. Taking images is the fastest and most reliable way to capture reality.
