Abstract:
This article is about a period of technology transfer – the late 1910s and 1920s – when wartime aerial reconnaissance techniques and operations were being adapted to a range of civilian uses, including urban planning, land use analysis, traffic control, tax equalization, and even archaeology. At the center of the discussion is the ‘photomosaic’: a patchwork of overlapping aerial photographs that have been rectified and fit together so as to form a continuous survey of a territory. Initially developed during the First World War to provide coverage of fronts, photomosaic mapping was widely practiced and celebrated during the postwar years as an aid to urban development. The article traces both the refinements in photomosaic technology after the Armistice and the rhetorical means by which the form’s avant-garde wartime reputation was domesticated into an ‘applied realism’ that often effaced its site-specific perspective, its elaborately rectified optics, and the oppositionality of both its military and civilian uses. The article has a broader theoretical aim as well. Classic statements of both structuralist and post-structuralist spatial theory (Barthes and de Certeau are the primary examples here) have produced an ossified geometry wherein the vertical is the axis of paradigm, top-down strategy, and manipulative distance and the horizontal the axis of syntagm, grassroots tactics, and resistant proximities and differences. In its close study of the technology and rhetoric surrounding interwar photogrammetry, the article provides an example of how one might reverse the long-standing misrecognition of high-altitude optics as effacing time, difference, and materiality – and what it might mean to view such optics as, instead, a resource in turning from abstract toward differential conceptions of both aerial photography and our theoretical habits. This turn I call ‘applied modernism’, a term that accesses both the wartime photomosaic’s affiliation with avant-garde painting and its insistence that portraits of the total are always projections from partial, specific vantages.

Abstract:
While aerial photography is associated with vertical objectivity and spatial abstractions, street-level imagery appears less political in its orientation to the particularities of place. I contest this assumption, showing how the aggregation of street-level imagery into “big datasets” allows for the algorithmic sorting of places by their street-level visual qualities. This occurs through an abstraction by “datafication,” inscribing new power geometries onto urban places through algorithmic linkages between visual environmental qualities, geographic information, and valuations of social worth and risk. Though largely missing from media studies of Google Street View, similar issues have been raised in critiques of criminological theories that use place as a proxy for risk. Comparing the Broken Windows theory of criminogenesis with big data applications of street-level imagery informs a critical media studies approach to Google Street View. The final section of this article suggests alternative theoretical orientations for algorithm design that avoid the pitfalls of essentialist equations of place with social character.

Abstract:
The photogrammetric mapping process at the first stage requires planning of aerial photography. Aerial photographs quality depends on the successfull photographic mission specified by requirements that meet not only Lithuanian needs, but also the requirements of the European Union. For such a purpose the detailed specifications for aerial photographic mission for mapping urban territories at a large scale are investigated. The aerial photography parameters and requirements for flight planning, photographic strips, overlaps, aerial camera and film are outlined. The scale of photography, flying height and method for photogrammetric mapping is foreseen as well as tolerances of photographs tilt and swings round (yaw) are presented. Digital camera based on CCD sensors and on-board GPS is greatly appreciated in present-day technologies undertaking aerial mission.

Abstract:
Analyzing GIS technologies` products for strengthening the tourist attractiveness of the destination and research of possibilities of GIS-technologies at the formation of a tourist product is the purpose of this work. The relevance of this study lies in the need to apply innovative approaches to GIS technologies` usages in the development of national tourism products. The research methodology is based on the application of the statistical method of data processing, the cartographic method of research with the use of GIS, and the method of spatial analysis. General scientific, systematic and informational approaches are also used. The results of the study are an analysis of existing products of GIS technologies and the state of their implementation in tourism, the study of interactive maps and geoportals as tools for the successful solution of problems in the modern tourism sector. It has been found that geoportals significantly help to form a national infrastructure of geospatial data. In the publication I consider two levels of GIS implementation: national and regional. I gave vivid examples of newly created national geoportals and tourist geoportals of the regions of Ukraine, interactive maps of amateur tourists. I considered in more detail the development of GIS technologies` products of such a tourist destination as the Chernihiv region. In particular, as an example, an overview of one of the most functional in Ukraine geoportals - The Geoportal of the urban cadastre of the Chernihiv region is given. A thematic tour of the Chernihiv region was projected with the help of GIS. The scientific novelty of this study is identifying the features of the use of cartographic research methods, especially GIS technologies to study the tourist resources of the territory, the creation of new regional tourism products. I propose to use the method of spatial analysis in the creation of the thematic tour. The practical significance lies in the use of GIS technology products to create cartographic products, such as maps, series of maps, atlases, 3D models, virtual tours. Its help to study in detail the tourist objects of the region contribute to management decisions, and further development and promotion of tourism. The database created during the study can be used to form other types of tourism products. The proposed method of using spatial analysis in the creating of the tour can be useful for expanding the GIS technologies` field of usage.

Abstract:
All features visible in the aerial photographs can be collected by traditional photogrammetric methods; however, such techniques require high operator skills and are very time-consuming. The decision which photogrammetric method uses in mapping is primarily economic, also workload, project deadline requirements and accurate data have to be considered. Up-to-date developed automatic or semi-automatic systems are highly effective for 3D features extraction in urban areas. The investigation objective is the comparison of analytical and digital semi-automatic photogrammetric mapping methods for 3D building models extraction from aerial images analysing in time-consuming and in collected data accuracy consideration.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis investigates the relationship between photography and urban visions in Europe in the period 1914-1945. It focuses in particular on the impact of the aerial gaze upon the ways in which the modern city was perceived and represented. The theoretical background for this inquiry is provided by contemporary debates on photography and visual culture, which are brought to bear on the study of urban representations. The main body of the argument is divided into three parts: 'Aerial Inspections', 'Aerial Imaginations', and 'Aerial Illustrations'. The first part discusses the urban imagery produced within the field of air reconnaissance photography, with particular regard to World War II. The second part charts the rise of an aerial imagination in avant-garde photography, which reconfigured the city as the site and subject of a modern way of seeing. The third part looks at how 'applied' aerial photography was instrumental to illustrate urban visions across various discursive fields, namely tourism, journalism, and urbanism; this section concludes with a case study on the aerial imagery of interwar London, based on the production of a leading air survey company. Besides pinpointing the modes of representation specific to each of these practices, the thesis also describes the traffic of images and the flow of meanings that occurred across their boundaries. It is finally argued that a new urban visuality was the result of the procedures introduced by aerial photography: the photogenic city emerged as a contested field of representation marked out by an underlying tension between spectacle and surveillance.

Abstract:
To date aerial photography and associated photogrammetric and photo-interpretation techniques have played but a limited role in the planning process. In this study their dual role (i) as a base medium and (ii) as a source of data is investigated bearing in mind the requirements of planning data and certain inherent defects of conventional maps in the planning process. Having considered certain pertinent technical aspects of aerial photography and associated techniques, especially modern developments such as orthophotos, use of multi-emulsion photography, automated data extraction and automated data processing techniques, the application of these techniques is discussed in greater detail in respect of the dual role mentioned earlier. Aerial photographs are shown to be of considerable value to the planner as an analytic tool and a powerful source of data when dealing with such topics as feasibility studies, land use, resource surveys, urban and regional research and analysis, urban history, urban and rural administration, site evaluation, transportation and other. branches of engineering, urban sociology and economics, as well as urban aesthetics. Aerial photographic data adequately meets the data requirements of the planning process and furthermore lends itself to modern automatic data processing methods. The modern improved forms of photography, i.e. photomaps, orthophotos, etc. have definite advantages over conventional maps insofar as a base medium in planning is concerned, and the wider use of aerial photographs and products is anticipated when planners become more aware of their universal application and versatility.

Abstract:
American urban neighborhoods are a patchwork; the spatial arrangement of types is a reflection of the dominant transportation technology at the time of their development. The earliest suburban areas were made accessible by fixed route systems such as the electric streetcar, followed by the widespread adoption of the automobile; each transportation epoch resulted in characteristic patterns of land use. This study uses aerial photographic coverage of Portland, Oregon from the years 1925, 1936, and 1945, a time of decline for the once popular trolley lines and dramatic increase in automobile usage, to monitor change within the residential areas of Portland's east side over a twenty year period. Classic economic models of the time acknowledged transportation as a force shaping the city; modem ideas in urban planning such as Traditional Neighborhood Design and Transit Oriented Development look to pre-automobile urban form as a means to reduce automobile use and its negative implications. This study uses variables of housing density and street connectivity derived from the aerial photography; the measured values of these variables are then considered for their spatial and temporal distribution using statistical comparisons. The results are compared to ideas within the urban models and current thinking about urban morphology. While generally consistent with the expected patterns, deviations and differences between the two variables are considered for their implications. Models offer a simplified version of the growth of American cities, considering only a few of the many aspects of a dynamic environment. By isolating on these variables of density and connectivity, a greater understanding of their role in arriving at the modem residential urban environment may be reached, and this understanding can add to the discourse in current planning debates.

Abstract:
Cette thèse étudie la vie sociale des images à Sarcelles, ville située dans la banlieue nord de Paris. Elle porte sur les matériaux et les interactions photographiques qui définissent socialement cet espace. En partant d’une ethnographie visuelle menée entre 2015 et 2018, elle explore les pratiques imagées, ces activités qui encadrent la fabrication, le partage et l’accomplissement social des images. Le projet général de cette recherche est l’étude de ce que j’ai nommé une communauté imagée. Cette notion permet d’analyser l’écologie des pratiques visuelles à partir d’une démarche à la fois pragmatique et phénoménologique. Si la plupart des ethnographies emploient la photographie comme un moyen pour décrire ou illustrer des phénomènes sociaux, cette thèse propose un revirement méthodologique et épistémologique : c’est en photographiant qu’il est possible d’étudier les pratiques visuelles dans l’environnement social où elles se produisent. Dans cet esprit, il est question ici de proposer une ethnographie des images et par les images, c’est-à-dire une photo-ethnographie critique, réflexive et participative pour interroger la dimension sensible des expériences sociales. Au croisement de la sociologie, de l’anthropologie, des études urbaines et des études visuelles, cette recherche contribue au développement de l’ethnographie visuelle. Sur la base d’une phénoménologie des expériences visuelles, elle explore les multiples configurations des affects urbains en suivant une démarche non indicielle. Elle accorde ainsi une attention particulière aux processus de fabrication, d’échange, de publicisation et d’accomplissement des images sur le terrain. Cette thèse s’articule autour de cinq chapitres. Le premier étudie l’économie des images au niveau municipal. Il fait un état de l’art des productions photographiques sur Sarcelles et examine les stratégies institutionnelles et artistiques déployées dans la définition des récits portant sur cet espace. Le deuxième analyse l’écologie des échanges visuels au niveau local à partir des formes de résistance imagée des citoyen-ne-s sur les médias et les réseaux sociaux. Le troisième explore le rapport entre expérience spatiale et photographie sur la base d’une activité immersive, sensorielle et non indicielle. Le quatrième chapitre sonde la façon dont l’espace urbain est vu et vécu par les habitant-e-s à partir de méthodes participatives. Ces pratiques collaboratives permettent d’interroger les représentations de l’expérience en ville en problématisant la place de l’enquêteur et de l’enquêté-e sous un prisme intersectionnel. Enfin, le cinquième chapitre décrit les différents degrés de publicisation des récits photo-ethnographiques en explicitant l’accomplissement de ces derniers à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur de la ville, notamment dans le milieu photojournalistique. Il s’agit donc ici d’enquêter sur les modalités de réception ainsi que sur la définition publique et médiatique de la communauté imagée. En somme, cette thèse contribue au développement de l’anthropologie et de la sociologie visuelle en proposant une approche à la fois phénoménologique, pragmatique et critique fondée sur l’engagement photographique de l’ethnographe sur le terrain
The present dissertation explores the social life of pictures at Sarcelles, a city to the north of Paris. This research focuses on the materials and photographic interactions that socially define this place. Based on a visual ethnography conducted between 2015 and 2018, this research explores the “imaged practices” (pratiques imagées), those activities that define and frame the creation, publicization, and performance of visual materials. The main objective of this dissertation is to study what I have called an imaged community (communauté imagée). This concept is a means to study the visual ecology of imaged practices both from a pragmatic and phenomenological point of view. While most researches in the field use photography as a means to describe or illustrate social phenomena, the present one advocates for a critical, reflexive, and participatory photographic ethnography based on sensorial and participatory activities. Combining fruitfully sociology, anthropology, urban studies, and visual studies, this investigation contributes to the methodological and theoretical development of visual ethnography. Relying on non-indexical photographic practices, the present dissertation details the multiple definition of visual experiences in urban settings. It delves into the dynamics of creation, exchange, publicization, and accomplishment of visual materials in the field. This manuscript is structured into five chapters. The first one presents the visual economy of photographic materials on an urban scale. It reveals the existing photographic materials on Sarcelles and examines the institutional and artistic strategies locally deployed since years which have functioned at defining the imaged community. The second one analyzes the ecology of visual interactions on a local scale based on a series of civic resistances which took place in the digital spaces. The third one explores the relationship between spatial experience and photography based on immersive, sensory, and non-representational visual practices. The fourth chapter explores how urban space is seen and experienced by the inhabitants of Sarcelles through visual participatory methods. This last chapter raises theoretical and methodological awareness on power relationships in the field and reflexively reconsiders the photographic activity putting at the front line the relations between race, class, and gender. Finally, the fifth chapter describes the different degrees of publicization of the photo-ethnographic accounts by analyzing how these last ones accomplish by thoroughly explaining how these productions are made and published. In particular, I explore the social construction of Sarcelles in photojournalism based on the visual and media definition of the imaged community in this professional environment. In sum, this dissertation contributes to the development of visual anthropology and visual sociology. Based on the photographic engagement in the field, it advocates for a phenomenological, pragmatic, and critical approach of visual ethnography

Abstract:
This study determines and predicts multi-temporal Land-Use-Land-Cover Change (LULC) in a peripheral urban landscape over a 22 year period in relation to the study area‘s greenery. A change detection analysis using post classification Maximum Likelihood algorithm on three multispectral SPOT-4 images was used to determine land-cover transformation. To predict future land coverage, a Land-Cover Change Modeler (LCM) and a Markov Chain were used. Results show that between the year 2000-2006, 2006-2011 and 2000-2011 the study area experienced varied changes in the different LULCs. Built-up areas increased by 10.08%, 3.15% and 13.23% in 2000-2006, 2006-2011, and 2000-2011 respectively. Areas covered by thicket decreased by 0.59% in 2000-2006 but increased by 0.56%, 0.07% in 2006-2011 and 2000-2011 respectively. Forest land-cover increased by 2.59% in 2000-2006, 2.82% in 2006-2011, and 5.41% in 2000-2011. Grassland declined by 8.46% and 2.64% in 2000-2006 and 2000-2011 respectively while degraded grassland declined by 3.62%, 12.45% and 16.07% in 2000-2006, 2006-2011, and 2000-2011 respectively. Projection results indicate a consistent pattern of growth or decline to those experienced between 2000-2011. This study provides insight into LULC patterns within the eThekwini metro area and offers invaluable understanding of the transformation of the urban green spaces. Key words: Land-Use-Land-Cover Change, Change detection, Land-Cover Change Modeler, Markov Chain Process, Land-Cover Change Prediction.

Full text
Abstract:
GAYME is a transmedia story-telling world that I have created to conceptually explore the dynamics of queering game design through the development of varying game prototypes. The final iteration of GAYME is @deadquarewalking'. It is a documentary game and a performance art installation that documents a carless, gay/queer/quare man's journey on Halloween to get to and from one of Orlando's most well-known gay clubs - the Parliament House Resort. "The art of cruising" city streets to seek out queer/quare companionship particularly amongst gay, male culture(s) is well-documented in densely, populated cities like New York, San Francisco and London, but not so much in car-centric, urban environments like Orlando that are less oriented towards pedestrians. Cruising has been and continues to be risky even in pedestrian-friendly cities but in Orlando cruising takes on a whole other dimension of danger. In 2011-2012, The Advocate magazine named Orlando one of the gayest cities in America (Breen, 2012). Transportation for America (2011) also named the Orlando metropolitan region the most dangerous city in the country for pedestrians. Living in Orlando without a car can be deadly as well as a significant barrier to connecting with other people, especially queer/quare people, because of Orlando's car-centric design. In Orlando, cars are sexy. At the same time, the increasing prevalence in gay, male culture(s) of geo-social, mobile phone applications using Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and location aware services, such as Grindr (Grindr, LLC., 2009) and even FourSquare (Crowley and Selvadurai, 2009) and Instagram (Systrom and Krieger, 2010), is shifting the way gay/queer/quare Orlandoans co-create social and sexual networks both online and offline. Urban and sub-urban landscapes have transformed into hybrid "techno-scapes" overlaying "the electronic, the emotional and the social with the geographic and the physical" (Hjorth, 2011). With or without a car, gay men can still geo-socially cruise Orlando's car-centric, street life with mobile devices. As such emerging media has become more pervasive, it has created new opportunities to quarely visualize Orlando's "technoscape" through phone photography and hashtag metadata while also blurring lines between the artist and the curator, the player and the game designer. This project particularly has evolved to employ game design as an exhibition tool for the visualization of geo-social photography through hashtag play. Using hashtags as a game mechanic generates metadata that potentially identifies patterns of play and "ways of seeing" across player experiences as they attempt to make meaning of the images they encounter in the game. @deadquarewalking also demonstrates the potential of game design and geo-social, photo-sharing applications to illuminate new ways of documenting and witnessing the urban landscapes that we both collectively and uniquely inhabit. 'In Irish culture, “quare” can mean “very” or “extremely” or it can be a spelling of the rural or Southern pronunciation of the word “queer.” Living in the American Southeast, I personally relate more to the term “quare” versus “queer.” Cultural theorist E. Patrick Johnson (2001) also argues for “quareness” as a way to question the subjective bias of whiteness in queer studies that risks discounting the lived experiences and material realities of people of color. Though I do not identify as a person of color and would be categorized as white or European American, “quareness” has an important critical application for considering how Orlando's urban design is intersectionally racialized, gendered and classed.

Abstract:
The study of aerial photography through photointerpretation and photointerpretation of urban morphology is not new in Archaeology, although it is increasingly used to draw conclusions within this field. In addition to identifying possible archaeological sites, aerial photography is also a resource for reading urban morphologies. In fact, it is very useful for the perception of the evolution of the layout of an urban network. When observing a landscape - urban or not - we must always pay attention to its dynamism. Thus, through the detection of Isotopic, Isoaxial and Isocline transmissions, we propose to develop a proposal for the morphological evolution of the Medieval Nucleus of Ourém over time and cross this analysis with what is already known within archaeological reality.

Abstract:
Section One (Regions, Revenants, Reimaginings) contextualises the book’s approach by locating it within recent critical discourse, and emphasising commonalities between Lawrence, Powys, Butts and Woolf – particularly in terms of their powerful attachments to place and strong sense of the past. It notes that the book’s approach to these writers is underpinned, in part, by a sense that canonical understandings of ‘modernism’ can and should be expanded by their work. The common influence of Thomas Hardy (both in terms of style and themes) is also discussed. Section Two (Cosmopolitan and Technological Perspectives) stresses the impact that certain characteristics of the era have upon the four authors’ work, including the growth of urban cosmopolitanism, aerial photography and railway travel. Again, this section also provides critical context, discussing recent examinations of modernism and cosmopolitanism. Section Three provides a chapter overview.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the feasibility and utility of using aerial photography or remotely sensed satellite imagery to identify geographic or “place” features that may be associated with criminal activity. It assesses whether or not variables derived from satellite images can provide surrogate relationships between land use and crime. A review of the remote sensing literature suggests two basic approaches to the use of remotely sensed images in law enforcement: (1) tactical; and (2) analytical. The tactical approach uses the imagery as a background to the maps and other spatial information that an officer on the beat might have as he or she is investigating a crime or emergency situation. The analytical approach uses the remotely sensed images to create new variables that may serve as proxies for the risk of crime in particular locations. In this study we employ the analytical approach to the use of remotely sensed images, classifying images according to the presence or absence of vegetation within a pixel, as well as the classification of specific urban attributes, such as parking lots. We also employ spatial statistics to quantify the relationship between features of the images and crime events on the ground, and these analyses may be particularly useful as input to policy decisions about policing within the community.
