Abstract
Engineers who plan and design multipurpose reservoir projects know that the importance of securing dependable topographic maps cannot be overestimated. Topographic mapping of the extensive areas of such projects by the use of the transit and level or plane table and alidade is time-consuming and expensive. The speed, economy, and map accuracies obtained with photogrammetric methods make it essential to give full consideration to the utilization of aerial surveying in mapping reservoir projects for as many planning purposes as practicable.
