PRELIMINARY REPORT OF COMMISSION VI.
When the Austrian Society of Photogrammetry at the VI. International
Congress of Photogrammetry in the Hague in 1948 was appointed to lead the
Commission VI, the following resolutions had been adopted then:
1) The international journal “Photogrammetria” shall be published again.
Thanks to the very busy efforts of the former president, Prof. Schermerhorn,
the *Photogrammetria" now appears again since 1949 and became indeed an
organ connecting the photogrammetrists of all nations.
2) Each national society should draw up a bibliography of photogrammet-
ric papers and books published in their countries and shall transmit this list to
“Photogrammetria” and also to each of the other national societies. The classifi-
cation of these bibliographies should be accomplished later on by an appropriate
committee, designated by the Congress.
3) Fach national society shall endeavour that in every school in her
country where geodesy, topography and so on are taught at least an introduc-
tory course in photogrammetry will be established.
4) The various national societies may compile a set of definitions of pho-
togrammetric terms currently in use within each country; terms already inter-
nationally used should be specially taken into account. A copy of this list should
be forwarded to each of the other national photogrammetric societies and also
to “photogrammetria”. A committee be designated by the next Congress should
elaborate these lists and prepare proposals for an international set of photo-
grammetric terms and symbols.
5) Each national society should prepare a history of the development of
the photogrammetry in her country and also a history of her own society and
send to “Photogrammetria”. Later on a committee be designated by the Con-
gress shall draw up a comprehensive international history which may readily
be kept up-to-date. ‘|
On account of these resolutions and according to the scope of the Com-
mission's duties including: education, terminology, bibliography, standardiza-
tion, history and the Polyglot Dictionary, we have forwarded questionnaires
