The text provides a record and description of the experiments, discussing the results in relation to potential choices of method and equipment. Illustrative figures and appendices are included. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in aerial surveying and the development of mapping.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAuthors' foreword\u003cbr\u003e Preface H.
