Photogrammetric Data Of The UK And World
The database contains scanned photographs (at 1016dpi) of the UK and various locations around the world. Some are single band (black&white) others are 3 band colour. The images are stored in various formats on various types of magnetic media: .COT raw scans can only be used on the Intergraph ImageStation; .JPG (Intergraph format); .TIF. Processed scans may also be saved as stereomodels (with project data) and as orthophotographs. Mono coverage for most of the UK and we are constantly acquiring stereo data. Data is updated when unscanned areas are required by projects.

The start date given is the point the scanning process was suitably refined, there are older test scans. Additional information should be sought from Gisela Ager, Remote sensing. These images are being catalogued and the metadata will be available on the GDI soon.
