commenced in 1955. Nontopographic photogrammetry for
protection of cultural monuments and archeological
objects was applied for the first time by Prof.A.Raikov
and Prof.Iv.Haidushki in 1957. Prof.Raikov led the
implanting of analogue aerotriangulation at the enter-
prise "Geoplanproject" in 1958, while Prof. Haidushki
introduced photogrammetry in hydrotechnical constructon,
in the corréction of river beds and the construction of
dams, as well as in forestry, markscheider work, archi-
tecture, building construction deformations etc. A limi-
ted implantation of analytic aerotriangulation in topo-
graphic geodetic production commenced at the Institute
of Geodesy and Photogrammetry in 1967. Digital models in
photogrammetry began to be used at the Institute of Geo-
desy and Photogrammetry in 1972. The revision of the
topographic map at scale 1:25 000 in orthophotoscopic
manner was experimentally carried out in the same year
while orthophotoplanes were introduced in large-scale
and nontopographic work in 1975.
Research work in the field of photogrammetry is
being performed at the higher institutes and individu-
ally at the special institutes in Geodesy, Photogram-
metry and Cartography. This activity finds periodic
publicity at the scientific-technical conferences, sym-
posiums etc. The achievements in photogrammetry in
this country are reported at these conferences. The re-
ports are published in collected editions issued in
connection with the respective conferences. Usually the
national conferences are held in accordance with the
