The paper presents an assessment of the results of a practical investigation into topographic interpretation from photography taken from the Spacelab Mission launched on 28th November, 1983. Hunting Surveys Ltd. had carried out mapping at 1:100 000 scale of part of Oman from photography taken in 1981 and stereoscopic cover of this area from Spacelab was available, so providing the opportunity of a comparison of the interpretation with the existing mapping.
