Oh, yeah, early 90's, Commercial GPS was stillin diapers! Us surveyors were just learning it.
Pretty interesting stuff.

I bet the point clouds you guys were generating were in milions and milions...  Did you get to do any of the pst processing, or were you mainly on the data collection end?

I was always considered a 'compuer wiz' - at least at the time, so i'd get stuck doing post processing. They'd always promisse to get me out in the field more, as soon as I finish "this project", because noone else can do it... That would not happen often enough.

Looks like airborne laser (lidar) is getting more and more use nowdays. I've used it's product, but haven't gotten into asmuch detail as I used to with aerial photogrammetry (non digital, but steroscopic stuff).  I love playing with tehnology... all the neat gadgets :)  I get a kick out of doing real useful things with them. To me, that's' real entertainment'    [I know, I know, I'm odd]
