What is the difference between photogrammetry and remote sensing, surveying and mapping aerial photography?

There is little difference between these two majors, both of which are surveying and mapping majors. Specifically, it is still different. The major of aerial photogrammetry is aerial photography and mapping, and the major of remote sensing is geological analysis.

According to preliminary statistics, at present, the first-level disciplines related to photogrammetry and remote sensing in China include geography, surveying and mapping science and technology, geological resources and geological engineering. There are cartography and geographic information system in geography, geodesy and surveying engineering in surveying and mapping science and technology, photogrammetry and remote sensing, cartography and geographic information engineering, and earth exploration and information technology in geological resources and geological engineering. There are 140 colleges and universities in China with photogrammetry and remote sensing related majors, which are mainly distributed in Jiangsu, Hubei, Sichuan, Beijing and other provinces and cities. Among them, there are 15 universities in Jiangsu, Wuhan University, China Geo University (Wuhan) and Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Hubei, 9 universities in Sichuan and Southwest Jiaotong University, and 5 universities in Beijing, including Peking University, Beijing Normal University and Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics. According to the nature of institutions of higher learning, institutions of higher learning related to photogrammetry and remote sensing mainly include civil surveying and mapping institutions and military surveying and mapping institutions. From the perspective of field classification, these educational institutions include comprehensive, surveying and mapping, geology and mineral resources, transportation and normal schools. Wuhan University is a well-known comprehensive university in China. There are schools with surveying and mapping disciplines, such as School of Remote Sensing Information Engineering, School of Surveying and Mapping, and School of Resources and Environmental Science. The School of Remote Sensing Information Engineering has three departments: remote sensing science and technology, photogrammetry and remote sensing, and spatial information engineering, among which photogrammetry and remote sensing are the first batch of national key disciplines approved by the Ministry of Education, and 2 1 1 and 985 key construction disciplines. The talent training system ranges from undergraduate, master, doctor to postdoctoral. The discipline of photogrammetry and remote sensing in Peking University is located in the Institute of Remote Sensing and Geographic Information System of the School of Earth and Space Sciences. The institute is the main unit granting master's and doctor's degrees in surveying and mapping science and technology, and has master's and doctor's degrees in photogrammetry and remote sensing (engineering). There are 67 universities of geology and mineral resources in China, among which five universities, including China Geo University, offer undergraduate courses in remote sensing science and technology. As for postgraduate majors, China University of Mining and Technology and other 18 universities have photogrammetry and remote sensing majors. As for doctoral programs, seven universities, including China University of Mining and Technology, offer photogrammetry and remote sensing majors. At present, there are 12 transportation colleges and universities in China that offer photogrammetry, remote sensing and geographic information system, or offer related courses in this field, and these two majors are basically developed with the support of surveying and mapping science and technology. Among them, Southwest Jiaotong University is the earliest one in photogrammetry and remote sensing. 65438-0942, Southwest Jiaotong University began to study the analytical method of aerial survey and graphic calculation. 195 1 year, the research results of aerial survey analytical method were published for the first time. Mathematical analysis of aerial survey. 1959 the direction of establishing railway aerial survey specialty in railway construction specialty. 1977 set up aerial survey teaching and research section and aerial survey laboratory. 1979 set up remote sensing teaching and research section and remote sensing laboratory. The Department of Aerial Survey and Engineering Geology was established in 1983. 1984 the major of railway aerial survey was renamed as the major of photogrammetry and remote sensing according to national regulations. 199 1 set up the Department of Surveying Engineering, which consists of four teaching and research sections for engineering surveying, aerial surveying, remote sensing and control surveying, and three laboratories for engineering surveying, aerial surveying and remote sensing. There are more than 40 normal universities offering photogrammetry and remote sensing related majors, including Beijing Normal University, Nanjing Normal University, Capital Normal University and Shanghai Normal University. Photogrammetry and remote sensing related majors are generally located in colleges of geography, resources and environmental science, urban and environmental science, tourism and so on. The Institute of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing is a specialized institution established in China to meet the needs of scientific research, development and application of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, and also undertakes the education and training of master and doctoral students. Such as China Academy of Surveying and Mapping, Institute of Remote Sensing Application of Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Remote Sensing Satellite Ground Station of China Academy of Sciences, Institute of Geographical Sciences and Resources of Chinese Academy of Sciences, etc.
