2020 ASPRS Outstanding Technical Achievement Award Recipients
USGS Digital Orthophoto Quad (DOQ)Technical Team: David Hooper,
Lyman Ladner, George Lee and Randy Olsen.
Using mathematics to differentially rectify pixels in digitized or digital imagery
to produce image maps, with an approach that continues to impact remote sens-
ing and GIS processes, was developed at the USGS Western Mapping Center.
In 1986 a prototype digital orthophoto quadrangle (DOQ) production system
launched an effort that not only improved USGS support to the federal civil
mapping community but also stimulated an initiative within the Department of
Defense. This award is to recognize the innovative drive of the initial proposal
that was a turning point in the use of digital imagery and which laid the ground-
work for today’s democratization of imagery and remote sensing use and GIS.
