jan 1, 1840 - Photogrammetry

Description:

The first use of photogrammetry appears shortly after the emergence of photography. The credit goes to French geodesist, François Arago. He presents to the Academy of Science, a method using triangulation. This technology enables him to determine the position of objects in space based on photographs taken from different viewing angles, without knowing the position of the shots beforehand.
