The idea for this collection of memories of E. H. Thompson began as a suggestion to potential contributors for anything from “a couple of sentences to a couple of paragraphs”. Both their willingness to write and the length of some contributions show how influential Thompson has been in the lives of so many of his colleagues and students. Contributors include two past‐presidents of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing and six past‐presidents of the Photogrammetric Society. Three longer essays are published as separate contributions to this feature.
