The subjects taught are geodesy, plane survey, photogrammetry, carto- 
graphy, map reproduction, geophysics and geology, as well as related subjects 
including mathematics, theory of errors, physics and optics. In addition, instruc- 
tion in foreign languages is given to fit the students for further education and 
subsequent practical application. 
For higher training and education in photogrammety the N.C.C. has 
sent and continues to send suitably qualified engineers to the I. T.C. (International 
Institute for Aerial Survey and Earth Sciences, Enschede, the Netherlands.) 
G) OTHER ACTIVITIES 
During the past four years, 660,990 photos and 29,150 diapositives on 
glass and 6, 700 diapositives on film have been printed; 750 mosaics have been 
made from 26,890 photos and 8,850 photos have heen rectified 
I) FUTURE TRENDS 
To meet the future requirements the following decisions have been made 
byN.C.C.: 
1. To aquire an aircraft suitable for aerial photography at scales ranging 
from 1/3, 000 to 1/40, 000. 
2. To apply super wide angle photography for the increasing number of 
irrigation and similar projects. 
3. To use colour photography for special projects and to prepare the 
necessary equipment for aproper laboratory. 
4. To extend the use of electronic computation for all Photogrammetric 
work. The main aim being further develop programmes for analytical strip 
and block adjustment of independent models, and minimisation of cont- 
rol. 
A number of iranian photogrammetrist enginiers have andergone 
specialised training in computing and have already produced original 
programmes which are being further improved.
