Abstract

3D spatial data acquired using photogrammetric techniques, is one of the most accurate and economic spatial data sources for GIS and spatial analysis. But, there are still many problems about storing, structuring, and appropriate management of spatial data obtained using photogrammetric techniques. According to the abilities of spatial database management systems, it can be said that on-line integration of photogrammetric and spatial database management systems, saves time and cost of producing, structuring and updating map products. Also, by means of theses integrated systems that produce structured data based on defined standards and topological relations between features in real world at the time of feature digitizing process, a great development in the field of reel-time and on-line GIS can be occurred. In this paper, in addition to the evaluation of necessity and importance of integration of photogrammetric and spatial database management systems, and explaining different levels of the integration, design, implementation, and test of an integrated system is discussed.
