Abstract

Interesting opportunities are presenting themselves for `just-in-time' mapping using images registered to the ground. In the 1990s and beyond, the preferred deliverable may no longer be a map, but a viewing technique -- that is, a desktop workstation equipped with data and software capable of creating map images upon demand. The end user will receive a CD-ROM library of GPS controlled photos; or, raw stereo pairs, plus a mathematical representation of digital elevations and land base registration points. The user will be able to produce highly customized image-based maps, on-the-fly.
