This author worked with E. H. Thompson in several different contexts in the course of his military and civilian career, notably in developing Thompson’s ideas about analytical aerial triangulation into a production system at the Ordnance Survey and later as a lecturer under Thompson at University College London and as Secretary of ISP Commission III when Thompson was Commission President. This essay thus stands as a separate contribution from a close colleague.
