This rather advanced analog technology is being taken over by simple image measurement software tools like, ImageJ, Adobe Acrobat, Google Earth Pro, Gimp, Photoshop and KLONK Image Measurement which can help do this kind of work from digitalized images. == In geography == Planimetric elements in geography are those features that are independent of elevation, such as roads, building footprints, and rivers and lakes. They are represented on two-dimensional maps as they are seen from the air, or in aerial photography. These features are often digitized from orthorectified aerial photography into data layers that can be used in analysis and cartographic outputs. A planimetric map is one that does not include relief data. == See also == Horizontal position representation Two-dimensional space == References == - [[Wiki-Architecture/Infrastructure]] - [[History and Theory/Temple Architecture/Stone Temples of India/pillars]] - [[History and Theory/World History/Classical Architecture]] - [[Urban and Planning/Transportation Planning]] - [[Design/Building Typologies/Cultural and Religious]] - [[Building Services/HVAC Systems]] - [[Environmental Design/Thermal Comfort]] - [[Environmental Design/Strong Foundations for Sustainable Constructions/satellites]] - [[Wiki-Architecture/General Architecture]] - [[Professional Practice/Codes & Standards/National Building Code of India/Part 09 - Plumbing Services]]
