The present conference on surveying, mapping, photogrammetry, and remote sensing encompasses the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the North American Vertical Datum (NAVD), the Geographic Information System and geodetic control, developments in geodetic surveying, and applications for remote sensing and photogrammetric techniques. Specific issues addressed include federal coordination of mapping, a USGS data format, the use of NAVD for flood insurance assessment, geodetic reference upgrades, the Airborne Data Acquisition and Registration system, conducting inventories of wetlands with remote sensing, chronologically evaluating urban growth, and analyzing substrate type and water depth with SPOT imagery. Also addressed are vehicle crush measurements via photogrammetry, the role of remote sensing in comprehensive environmental planning, watershed characterization using the Landsat TM, hardwoods identification with Landsat TM data, image motion effects, and computer modeling of urban area detection.
