My macbook pro is the best machine I've ever owned, so was my previous macbook pro. I find windows too limiting (and don't get me started on its security), I like the power and familiarity of the bash shell but I also spend all day fixing other peoples computer problems so I don't have the patience to deal with linux and it's contant niggling little issues. osx is perfect for me, and the hardware is rock solid. Literally the only bad thing about owning a mac is the other people who own macs.

what about non-upgradeable hardware,


it's a fucking laptop. I can change the RAM and the hard drive, like any other laptop. I can use the same RAM and hard drive as any other laptop.



overpriced hardware,


The only manufacturer who comes close on build quality is Lenovo and their prices are about the same



a clunky esoteric interface designed with the intention of impressing investors and not catering to the user's best interest,


It has a little search bar at the top, as soon as you type 3 letters of the name of a document or program it pops up. That's not clunky, it's brilliant. Ripping it off for the search bar in Windows 7 is the smartest thing Microsoft ever did, and now it's gone in 8. Anyone who says OSX's interface is 'clunky' while reciting the virues of the fucking start menu is an idiot or just looking to bitch for bitching's sake.



an overall lack of compatability with software


Just about everything for linux gets ported to mac, if anything it has a much larger software library than windows if you want to do anything other than playing games. I don't want to play games on a laptop, that's what I have a desktop for.



poor tech support and a difficulty (if not impossibility) in repairing it once shit turns in to a state of disarray


I've had them apart and used to service laptops for a living. They're no more or less easy to take apart and swap parts on than your average laptop.



like abercrombie and fitch, getting a mac is just paying for a brand name.


More like buying a mercedes, you're paying for quality along with the supposed prestige.



They suck, i hate the shit out of them


...for no apparent reason. That's a lot of anger to be carrying around about something dumb like a brand of computer.



their response back in 2000 or whenever it was to windows XP is unforgiveable, that thing they created was an uncooperative undisciplined monster


I don't know that they responded to XP at all, mac os has been on the market since 1984, windows was created to compete with it. microsoft reacts to what apple is doing, not the other way around. always have and likely always will.



"we better create something to compete with windows if we don't want out corporation to fade into obscurity,


if you're talking about the change to osx then you have no idea how incredibly powerful and standards compliant a *nix system is. giving up on 'classic mac' and switching to bsd was the smartest thing they've ever done.

Windows is just more organized

did you really just say that the one with the start menu and the registry is more organized? what did I tell you about saying stupid, provably false things?

I guess I'm going to have to go off on another rant

Installing an application in Windows:
run the setup.exe. This will put the executables and libraries in either /program files or /program files(x86), write some configuration to the registry, put some configuration data in ~/my documents, more in ~/appdata and still more in ~/appdata/roaming. the program is launched by navigating to the start menu, clicking 'all programs', clicking the appdev folder, clicking the appname folder, then clicking the app shortcut.
Uninstalling an application in windows:
click start, control panel, programs, add/remove programs, find your program in the list and run the uninstall.exe that setup.exe stashed away in yet another random place on your hard drive. run ccleaner to clean up the crap in the registry that the uninstaller forgot about

Installing an application on the mac:
download the .app file, drag it wherever the hell you want. configuration is stored somewhere under ~. Launch it by hitting cmd-space and typing the first 3 letters of its name.
Uninstalling an application on the mac:
Drag the .app file into the trash

Basic Principles of Photogrammetry

What is photogrammetry?

The science and technology of obtaining spatial measurements and other geometrically reliable derived products from photographs
Measurements include distances, areas, elevations to generate digital elevation models (DEM’s), orthophotos, thematic GIS data, ect.
Digital and softcopy refer to any photogrammetric operation involving the use of digital raster photographic image data.
Historic use of photogrammetry has been the production of topographic maps

Basic Geometric Characteristics of Aerial Photographs

Considered either vertical or oblique

-Vertical photographs are made with the camera axis directed as vertically as possible (perpendicular) to the ground
-True vertical rare to obtain due to angular rotations, or tilts, caused by the angular attitude of the aircraft at time of exposure
-Vertical aerial photographs have been between 1 and 3 degrees of tilt.

-Oblique area photographs are taken with intentional tilt
-High oblique aerial photographs contain the horizon
-Low oblique aerial photographs do not.

Taking Vertical Aerial Photographs

-The photographs are usually taken along a series of parallel passes called flight strips or flights lines
-The line traced on the ground beneath the aircraft is called the nadir line
-Connects the image centers of the vertical photographs
-This lapping along the flight line is called end lap
-The area of coverage common to an adjacent pair of photographs in a flight line is called the stereoscopic overlap area.
-The pair of photos is called a stereopair
-The amount of end lap is normally between 55 and 65 %
-Need at least 50% endlap for stereoscoptic coverage

Figure 3.1

-The ground distance between photo centers at the time of exposure is called the air base
-Vertical exaggeration is the ratio of air base to flying height
-The larger the base-height (BH) ratio, the greater the vertical exaggeration.
-Adjacent flights lines are photographed so that there is also a lateral overlapping of adjacent strips called side lap
-Normally held at approximately 30%
-The photographs of two or more sidelapping strips used to cover an area is referred to as a block of photos
-A block of photos can be “cut and passed” together to create a photo mosaic over the project area.

Figure 3.3.4

Geometric Elements of a Vertical Photograph

Photocoordinate measurement can be made from a variety of devices

Can use:
-An engineers scale for low orders of measurements accuracy
-Coordinate digitizer table
-A comparator

Photocoordinates can be in “page units” or “image units”

Errors in photocoordinate measurements include:

-Failure of fiducial axes to intersect at the principal point
-Shrinkage or expansion of photographic materials
-Lens distortions
-Atmospheric refraction distortions
-Earth curvature distortions

SCALES

Photographic scale is like map scale

-The scale of a photograph is the ratio of a distance on the photo to that same distance on the ground.
-On a map, scale is uniform everywhere because a map is an orthographic projection.
-An aerial photograph, on the other hand, is a perspective projection and, as will be demonstrated herein, its scale varies with variations in terrain elevation.

Scales may be expressed as:

-Unit equivalent
-Representative fractions, or
-As a ratio

For example, 1 cm on a map or photo represents 100 m (10 000cm) on the ground, the scale expressed in the aforementioned three ways is:

-Unit equivalent 1 cm = 100m
-Representative fractions, or 1 / 10,000
-As a ratio 1:10,000

Large scale vs. small scale
-1:10,000 vs. 1:50,000 which is larger?
-1: 10,000 is larger.

Scale over flat terrain

-Can calculate scale by measuring the corresponding photo and ground distances between two points
-Points must be identifiable on both the photo and ground, thus:

Scale = Photo distance (d) or (ab)/ground distance (D) or (AB)

Scale is also a function of focal length (f) of the camera used to acquire the image and the flying height above ground, (H’)

-Scale=camera focal length (f)/flying height above terrain (H’)
OR
-Scale=camera focal length (f)/flying height at datum (H) –elevation above datum (h)

Example 3.1

-Assume that two road intersections shown on a photograph can be located on a 1:25,000 scale topographical map. The measured distance between the intersections is 47.2 mm on the map and 94.3 mm on the photograph. What is the scale of the photograph? At that scale what is the length of the fence line that measure 42.9 mm on the photograph?

find ground distance

1 mm on the map= 25,000 mm on the ground
1mm on the map= 25 m on the ground (times each side by 47.2)
Ground Distance = 1,180 m
Scale=Photo distance (d) or (ab)/ground distance (D) or (AB)

= 94.3(0,0943)/1,180
Ans:12,500



Example 3.2

-A camera equipped with a 152 mm focal length lens is used to take a vertical photograph from a flying height of 2780m above mean sea level. If the terrain is flat and located at an elevation of 500m, what is the ground scale of the photograph?
Ans: 15,000

Example 3.3
-Assume that a vertical photograph was taken at a flying height of 5,000m above sea level using a camera with a 152 mm focal lens. Determine the photo scale at points A and B,which lie at elevations of 1200 and 1960 m. What ground distance corresponds to a 20.1 mm photo distance measured at each of these elevations?
Ans (1200): 25,000
Ans (1960): 20,000

-For the 20.1 multiply each answer by 0.201 and you’ll get your ground distance.

The average scale for an entire photograph is based on the average terrain elevation for the area imaged.
-Savg=f/H-havg


-The result of the photo scale variation is geometric distortion
-All points on a map are depicted at their true relative horizontal (planimetric) positions
-Photo locations taken over varying terrain are displaced from their true map positions
-The difference in position of geometric distortion results from a map being scaled in an orthographic projection whereas a vertical aerial photograph yields a perspective projection
