Language Group still to be added by own Definitions
and Equivalents. A Source-Code (3 digits) which is
now shown on- the German-Entry-List only made the
references easier during compilation and correction
work.
4.2 Members of LG-team
From Austria, Germany and Switzerland 25 experts in
Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing or specialists in
any Subfield working at universities, governmentals
offices and private companies contributed their
professional knowledge to the dictionary. An Advi-
sor-Code (2 digits) is added to the abovementioned
Source-Code.
4,3 Subfields
At the beginning of Dictionary-work 28 Subfields
were created in order to split the efforts of the
experts. (Lindig, 1988, Annex 3). Due to unavoid-
able overlappings it seemed to be advisable to
reduce the Subfields to 11, included as "Domaines"
(Sachgebiete) in the published Glossary.
4.4 Special characters
The German orthography has four special characters
which are normally not on foreign tpye writers. In
the abovementioned Entry-List (Volume 3) they are
replaced as follows:
à = ae, 0 » oe, ü = ue, B = ss.
But in the Glossary the correct German characters
are used as well as the numerous French ones. If
data exchange via floppy-disk is intended precau-
tion must be provided to handle these characters by
the relevant computer.
4.5 Cross-References
Contrary to other dictionaries no symbols were used
but only words which are understandable at any
time. If it seemed necessary to include a term as
Cross-Reference which cannot be found as Entry in
the Glossary, it was put in parantheses ().
veraltet: = The term (mostly synonym but not
(obsolete) related to a technical method) is
not used any more
besser: - Preference term of synonyms with
(better) Definitions and Equivalents
auch: - Other synonyms without Definitions
(also) and Equivalents
siehe: - This Cross-Reference has various
(see) functions:
- to superior term including re-
ferenced term in its definition,
- to abbreviation (abb),
- in case of abbreviation to the
"long form",
- between noun (with definition),
verb and adjective
vergl: - To side - or subordinated terms
(compare) but also to contrary terms se-
parated by ";"
/ - Behind terms in definitions which
can be found as Entry in the Ger-
man Glossary

4.7 Editorial
Between 1982 and 1992 ISPRS Working Group VI-3
"Terminology" was chaired by G. Lindig, Frankfurt
am Main and partly co-chaired by H.-P. Bähr, Karls-
ruhe and J. Sievers, Frankfurt am Main. Compilation
of the German part of the ISPRS-Dictionary was only
possible with the essential support of the Institut
für Angewandte Geodäsie (IFAG), Frankfut am Main.
The German Dictionary will be printed and published
by IFAG as "Deutsches Fachwörterbuch
Photogrammetrie und Fernerkundung".
