During the last few years, however, several private firms have extended
their activity to other countries, consequently a certain part of the pro
duction apparatus in also made use of for mapping outside Sweden.
The Swedish Society for Photogrammetry every year procures informa
tion regarding the staff, the amount of instruments, and the production
from organizations in Sweden actively engaged in photogrammetry. The
tables below constitute a compilation of these reports. In spite of the
fact that the reports are not complete in every detail, the tables should
anyhow give a good picture of how the production has advanced during
the last four years.

The main part of the stereo instruments (64 % in 1967) are of the
make Wild, as are all the aerial cameras. Among the rectifying instru
ments, all delivered by Zeiss of West Germany, is a Gigas-Zeiss Orto
Projector.
