The Giuseppe Inghilleri Award

Preamble

Professor Giuseppe Inghilleri

In 2008 the Italian Society for Surveying and Photogrammetry (SIFET) established an award in honour of Professor Giuseppe Inghilleri.
Giuseppe Inghilleri (1924-1982), full Professor of Geodesy and Photogrammetry, was Head of the Institute of Geodesy at the Politecnico di Torino from 1962 until 1977. His scientific work greatly enhanced the mathematical and statistical foundations of photogrammetry, surveying and mapping science. In 1972, at the ISP Congress in Ottawa, he presented an innovative analytical stereo-plotter, produced in the following years by Officine Galileo. He served as President of the ISPRS Technical Commission II from 1972 – 1976 and President of the SIFET from 1979 to 1982.
