Orthophoto mapping in New Zealand
- Date
- 1980
- Description
The new generation of computer controlled orthophoto equipment means that excellent quality results can be achieved very readily. In New Zealand there is an increasing interest in many disciplines in the use of orthophotography as its potential becomes known. The Wild Avioplan OR1 recently installed in the Photogrammetric Branch of the Department of Lands and Survey is now reaching full operation and is currently being used for the production of orthophoto maps for Ministry of Works and Development projects. Principles of orthophotography are explained together with methods of data acquisition and types of photography that can be used. Future applications and the possible value of stereo-orthophotography are raised. Some selected examples of orthophotography are included. (auth)
