Scientific applications for digital stereo vision include the extraction of information from aerial surveys, for calculation of contour maps or even geometry extraction for 3D building mapping, or calculation of 3D heliographical information such as obtained by the NASA STEREO project.
While doing aerial surveys to assess the viability of an air service in 1938 Connellan picked out the land for the pastoral station, Narwietooma Station, he later established in 1943.
