Originally published in 1952, this book is intended as an introductory guide to aerial mapping and photogrammetry. The main emphasis is on making maps during wartime, when accuracy is paramount and information may be minimal; Trorey had experience of this while serving with the Canadian Military Survey in WWII. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in mapmaking.
