The cost of preparing photogrammetric maps is influenced predominantly by the contour interval, with the smallest interval being most costly. This should not, however,
result in a decision to use a larger interval map solely to reduce cost when a more accurate map is needed.
Equipment and Techniques.
Modern mapping equipment and techniques provide a wide range of products and
services to support planning and design, and ongoing construction management, including
Measurement of earthwork pay quantities.
Digital ortho mapping, wherein the aerial photographic image
is digitized in true plan position and scale, and can be inserted
into the project Geographic Information System (GIS) or
database.
Digital topographic mapping, wherein contours and planimetric features are directly digitized during the map compilation process and can be CAD-plotted and/or inserted into the
project GIS.
Software enabling manipulation of digital map and survey
data to extract profiles, cross sections, spot elevations, etc.,
and to superimpose this data selectively with design, right of
way, geologic, and other data sets that have been digitized
into the GIS/database.
CAD plotting of selected layers, or combination of layers of
map data, such as contours, building outlines, road outlines,
vegetation, utilities, drainage, fences, walls, and so on. This
data can also be selectively plotted with property and boundary information, design information, land ownership data,
utility size, type, age, etc., and demographic and other information that has been entered into the GIS/database.
