Photogrammetry Laboratory

About

Photogrammetry is a sub-discipline of Geomatics Engineering that has grown in popularity in recent years. It is critical for applications that require frequent and extensive data, such as smart cities, that remote sensing measurements be fast, precise, and data-intensive. Under the Photogrammetry Department's umbrella, modeling and analysis projects for livable and sustainable cities have been carried out for the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization. A service procurement contract for satellite geometric calibration was signed with TÜBİTAK UZAY Institute, and four graduate scholarship holders were supported under the supervision of two Photogrammetry Department faculty members. Under the supervision of a faculty member from the Photogrammetry Department, Telespazio and Hacettepe Teknokent-TTM developed software for controlling the spatial accuracy of earth observation satellites for the European Meteorological Satellites Union (EUMETSAT). The Japanese Space Agency (JAXA), on the other hand, has officially approved two faculty members from Hacettepe Geomatics Engineering Photogrammetry Department to be the main researchers in the project of determining the geometric accuracy of the ALOS-3 satellite.

These developments and the participation of research assistants in addition to the increasing number of scholars who participate in satellite, space technology, and smart city projects in our Department will not only meet the human resource needs of our country by training more researchers in these fields, but also ensure that the projects are conducted more effectively and efficiently.
