Principles of ecology, biogeography and vegetation mapping. Essential 
for remote sensing, desirable for photogrammetry. 
Principles of agricultural and forestry systems in appropriate 
environments. Knowledge of appropriate crops and crop calendars. Essential 
for remote sensing, desirable for photogrammetry. 
Acquaintance with urban systems and urban fabric studies. Essential 
for remote sensing, desirable for photogrammetry. 
Familiarisation with techniques of terrain evaluation and land 
capability assessment, with some demonstrated field capability and achieve- 
ment by project work are desirable for Levels b and c in both subjects and 
essential for Level a. 
Competence in field mapping techniques must be taught and capability 
demonstrated by assessment of practical results of field projects. These 
should include standard ground techniques for topographic mapping, as well 
as geological and particularly geomorphological mapping and vegetation 
mapping. These techniques are considered essential for understanding of 
terrain by geographers for both remote sensing and photogrammetry. 
Photogrammetry 
For Level c. 
Basic principles, photography, films, camera systems, imple optics, 
flight planning, vertical and oblique photographs, stereoscopy, radial 
line triangulation, planimetric map construction and revision, simple 
height determination, mosaics, description of orthophotographs, air photo 
interpretation with practical experience in laboratory and field. 
For Level b. 
As above in mucn greater detail, and with greater practical experience, 
plus principles of orthophotography, photogrammetric control, aerial 
triangulation, and simple plotting instruments. Principles of collinearity 
methods. Principles of terrestrial photogrammetry and mapping from 
oblique photographs. 
For Level a. 
As above, but again greater detail and practical experience. 
Experience with more advanced plotting methods and instruments, and 
orthophotoplotters. Cost and time estimation. Use of radar images in 
photogrammetry, and combination of photogrammetric with other remotely 
sensed data. 
In all of the above it is assumed that at each level, appropriate 
cartographic, geodetic and ground survey knowledge and capabilties 
commensurate with those in photogrammetry are available as a supporting 
subject. | 
It has not been considered necessary to spell out these syllabi in 
great detail at this stage, since detailed photogrammetric syllabi are 
likely to be provided for the categories of active and passive photo- 
grammetric engineers and tecnnicians.
