Reprinted from PHOTOGRAMMETRIC ENGINEERING March 1956 Report of Commission VII (Photo graphic Interpretation) to the Inter national Society of Photo gramme try Charles G. Coleman, President, Commission VII U. S. Naval Photo Interpretation Center AND earl j. Rogers, Secretary, Commission VII U. S. Forest Service INTRODUCTION R eviewing, organizing and compiling information on all phases of photo interpretation over the past four years is a tremendous task. This report, as an attempt to accomplish this task, is far from complete. At best, it represents only a cross section of such information on photographic interpretation activities as was available to the compilers. Information presented in this report was largely contributed by the various national reporters and their sub-reporters. In addition, free use was made of data from some of the excellent recently published papers reflecting photo graphic interpretation progress. The material is in four major sections: General, Natural Resources Applica tions, Engineering Applications and Military Applications. This organization follows the suggestion made in the 1952 Resolutions of Commission VII. Under the general section is discussed the new developments in material which have led generally to the improvement and accuracy of photo inter pretation. Another part deals with equipment developments that have im proved photo interpretation. Personnel and training are briefly reviewed. In order not to duplicate the work of the Commission on Education, only a brief treatment of training is included, with emphasis on its effects on the photo graphic interpretation picture as a whole. Another part of this section covers the research and deals with the projects and developments that have taken place during the past four years. A short final portion contains information on the photographic interpretation manual being prepared by the American Society of Photogrammetry and in addition several other reference publications of interest. The section on natural resources has been divided, for convenience, into two general topics: (1) geology and (2) forestry and land use. The geologic part of this section points out the great increase in the number of geologic mapping and prospecting projects in which photographic interpretation is a vital factor. The part dealing with forestry and land use seems to indicate that photographic interpretation is making tremendous strides in all phases of forestry, agricul ture, and other related fields which deal with interpreting the earth’s surface. The section on engineering covers the use of aerial photos in mapping, rail road and highway engineering, urban planning and other engineering uses. The fourth section covers the field of military intelligence. While national security prevents a complete progress report being made by any of the report-
