G. Konecny et J. Schiewe, MAPPING FROM DIGITAL SATELLITE IMAGE DATA WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO MOMS-02, ISPRS journal of photogrammetry and remote sensing, 51(4), 1996, pp. 173-181
The status of world topographic mapping and the acquisition of satelli
te image data for land resource mapping applications are reviewed. Spe
cial focus has been placed on results from the German MOMS-02 system,
which offers high-resolution, stereoscopic image data for the producti
on of medium-scale maps. It is concluded that topographic mapping from
space is on the verge of becoming an operational reality.
