Lab 2 - Orthophoto Generation

       

 Seminar - Digital Mapping Cameras

This seminar will focus on the recent development in digital airborne camera technology. The students have to study the given and mostly linked litature and own research. The assignment of students to groups and more information can be seen from . A short but comprehensive report has to be prepared and will be later distributed to other students. The main findings will be presented in an about 20min presentation. The seminar will take place about 1-2 weeks before the Module 4 written exam fall 2009.

Deadline: Reports are due to 1-2 weeks before written exam (exact day will be fixed later).
