1) the Kern DSR-1 analytical plotter for aerial triangulation and its adjustment by the 
BLUH program as well as for digital measurement of points and lines 
2) the Kern Maps 200 System for the acquisition and recording of digital data in the 
DSR-1 in conjunction with the Kern GT 1 plotting table 
3) the Kern digitizer for the input of graphic line connections of the utilities between 
manholes or from other records 
4) the Kern electronic tacheometer for additionally required ground measurements 
5) the Kern Maps 300 System for the off-line correction of the digital data acquired with 
the above instrumentation. 
The experiences of this pilot project are reported in additional papers by K.Jacobsen, 
J.Leonhardt and U.Stampa-Wessel. 
These papers demonstrate, in which way photogrammetry is capable of acquiring data for 
an integrated urban land information systern. 
5. KUDAMS-Project of Kuwait Municipality 
  
A large size project, which integrates cadastral, topographic. utility and planning data 
over an urban area of 580 km? is the Kuwait Municipality KUDAMS-Project (Kuwait 
Utility Data Management System). The Institute of Photogrammetry and Engineering 
Surveys of the University of Hannover was involved in a study for this project during the 
years 1980 and 1981 [5]. Based upon the recommendations of this study Kuwait Municipali- 
ty decided to implement the system within a 6 year period beginning in 1983. The main 
contract for this project went to the Mitsui-Asia Air Surveys Consortium of Tokyo, Japan. 
The project is based on a sequence of stages: 
1) A new control network for the entire state of Kuwait (17 800 km?) is established by 
monumentation of over 100 first order points and their survey by electrooptical distance 
and angular measurements: the orientation of the net is given by 8 simultaneously ob- 
served Doppler-points. 
This net is densified by terrestrial surveys in the urban areas to a level required at 
which the monumented and signalized reference points at the street block level can 
be determined by analytical aerial triangulation and its bundle block adjustment. 
  
2) The cadastral information is presently contained in field notes with numerical survey 
data based on boundary traverse points which are signalized either as existing reference 
points or as newly reestablished monurnents. 
Based on the photogrammetrically determined coordinates the cadastral boundary 
point coordinates are calculated and adjusted from the field notes. 
The calculation of these coordinates is facilitated by interactive graphic systems 
using a special cadastral software. 
For the Kuwait Project this is presently accomplished with 2 Intergraph graphic work 
stations linked to a VAX 11/750 computer operated by a specially designed Mitsui- 
Intergraph software. 
Software has also been designed to update cadastral information on the work stations 
based on electronic tacheometer (total station) data, referenced to the control network. 
  
The software furthermore permits to display or print attribute data, such as the par- 
cel number or the ownership number for a particular owner identified in an Arabian 
name file. 
For this reason a new parcel numbering scheme. also including roads and public parcels 
is being introduced.
