COMMISSION V. SPECIAL APPLICATIONS OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY 
RAPPORTEUR: Professor G.H. Menzies 
Research work is being done at Natal University in the aerial photography 
of a number of archaological sites using pan and infra-red film, also 
early morning obliques fo improve interpretation. 
Two test areas for terrestrial photography have been set out for calibrat- 
ion purposes in conjunction with the stereocomparator. Some | : | scale 
drawings of rock engravings have been produced from terrestrial stereo- 
photography, also large scale architectural drawings of the elevations of 
historical buildings. 
One private company is undertaking research using terrestrial photography 
to determine volumes in open cast mines and also tunnel measurements for 
+he South African Railways using Zeiss Short Base camera equipment. 
  
COMMISSION Vl. BIBLIOGRAPHY, EDUCATION AND TERMINOLOGY 
RAPPORTEUR: Mr. H.S. Williams 
The Universities of Cape Town, Natal, Pretoria and Witwatersrand offer 
courses in photogrammetry at both graduate and post-graduate levels in 
land surveying, civil engineering and allied disciplines. In South 
Africa photogrammetry is regarded as a surveying technique and therefore 
an integral part of the surveying profession, hence There is no separate 
degree course in this subject. Courses at technician level are provided 
by the College of Advanced Technical Education, Durban, Pretoria and Cape 
Town. Commercial air survey companies also run Training courses for 
photogrammetric operators on their own premises.
