CIAB is a Commission in which the following associa-
tions and societes are represented: International Society
of Photogrammetry, International Geodetic Association, In-
ternational Federation od Geodesy /FIG/, and Internation -
nal Association of Cartography. Furthermore, two Panel Dis-
cussion Sessions took place: during the first one educatio-
nal problems were discussed and the second, one concerned
the functions cf professional periodicals in the life of
Photogrammetrists and their Societies. All discussions we-
re very successful and fruitful. This meeting gave us the
opportunity to built up the program for the Congress and
also helped to bring together the members of our photogram-
metric fraternity and establish new ties of friendship.
In Cracow we reactivated an old, but lately neglected
iscussion on the range of utilization of photogrammetric
g ©
eriodicals and on the prospects for these periodicals in
the future. "e are concerned with national periodicals,
especially though with the expenditure of the range and
scope of influence of our ISP official journal "Photogram-
netria".
The proceedings of the Symposium /in English/ were dis-
tributed among the participants and the National Reporters
of Commission VI in December 1975, as a special volume "Pa-
pers for the International Symposium Commissæion VI" issued
by The Stanislaw Staszic University of Mining and Metallur-
gy, Kraków — May 1975.
