MAPMAKING PROCESS, THE 

My father worked for the Army map service in the late 60's. To this day he won't talk about his work there, as satellites were top secret back then.

Someone tell me there’s a compilation of “50s/60s jazz through government audio” somewhere. It’s a vibe

Thanks for publishing this video! I have long been interested in map-making ever since I saw my first National Geographic 🗺special as a child and especially in my later life after reading the story of the clockmaker 🕰 Harrison in the book Longitude. 🌍 There are so few resources describing mapmaking 🌏 available for the general public. I wonder how much of this process remains the same today? I think that satellites 🛰 and computers 📡 must have transformed the field dramatically! 🗺 🗾🌍🌐🌏🌎

Not exactly a Naval Aviator or Special Forces MOS excitement. But its a highly tecnical MOS. I wonder how its today?

100% fan of 1960's US GI glasses. Affectionatly termed 'birth control'.

Awesome presentation of historic technologies! Too bad that the low resolution makes it hard to appreciate the workmanship and details of the example maps.

Thank you so much.

Wow, thanks god for the pleasing of a computer, now as a map maker i can just make a whole world map in seconds!
