Digital Image Technology: Cartographic Systems at the Defense Mapping Agency Aerospace Center.

Abstract

The Defense Mapping Agency Aerospace Center has developed a program to exploit digital image technology for the advancement of mapping, charting, and geodesy. Primary investigations include image processing, analysis, and display techniques, and computer image generation. A dramatic impact has been made in the ability to produce, analyze, and validate digital data bases produced by the Defense Mapping Agency by applying state-of-the-art digital image technology concepts to the development of new interactive prototype and production cartographic systems.
