ACTIVITIES 
Realizing the fact that the tasks are beyond the capabilities 
of one single person, the WG Chairman sought assistance from 
eminent and interested colleagues. Consequently, after a long 
search and advisement of the Commission President, two co- 
chairmen were appointed: 
1. Dr. Caesar Voute (The Netherlands), for the task of 
"Development of Training Packages and Lecture Materi- 
als"; and 
2. Dr. Taichi Oshima (Japan), for the task of "Establish- 
ing and continuing links with other sister societies 
within the International Union of Surveying and 
Mapping (IUSM)'. 
The WG Chairman, Sanjib K. Ghosh (Canada), assumed the task of 
"Coordinating all efforts and of promotion and development of 
education'. 
On a closer study of the current status of education in photo- 
grammetry and remote sensing, one can realize that there 
exists an immediate need of development in three areas of the 
world, viz., 
a) The S.E. Asian region; 
b) The South and Central American region; 
and c) The African region. 
In view of the regional promotional task, a committee of five 
colleagues in each of the above three regions has been formed. 
These groups are representative in terms of their expertise 
and their respective types of institution. The list follows: 
S.E. Asian Region: 
Dr. Kaew Nwalchawee, Asian Institute of Technology, 
Thailand 
Prof. Hardi Koesalamwardi, Institute of Technology, 
Bandung Indonesia 
Dr. R.S. Tiwari, Roorkee University India 
Mr. M.A. Jabbar, Space Research & Remote Sensing
