the 4. CONCLUSIONS 
s of 
Both cameras, WAOSS and WAAC are optimised to match with the scientific requirements and interface 
conditions of a mission to planet Mars and the airborne applications, respectively. Nevertheless, the airborne 
application of WAOSS helped to matures the camera design and gave inputs for the design of the airborne 
camera system for Earth applications. The results obtained until now are encouraging to pursue the development 
and application of digital CCD- line stereo cameras. 
5. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 
WAOSS was developed by the Institute of Space Sensor Technology (WS) of the DLR under the sponsorship of 
DARA, the German Space Agency. The image examples have been prepared by the sensor theory group of WS 
(Dr. R. Reulke, Dr. M. Scheele, Mr. A. Bórner, Mr. T. Terzibaschian).
