The shuttle-borne Large Format Camera (LFC) gave high quality photogrammetric images due to three mechanical features: image motion compensator, stellar cameras, and reseau. Images were tested to evaluate their semantic contents, the plano-altimetric accuracy of the stereomodels, and usefulness for map revision and for new line maps and orthophotos. The contents of the LFC images is exceptionally high, far more than in any 1:50,000 map. The identification of details depends more on contrast with background than on size. The mean square error in planimetric measures is 5 m, in elevation it is 5 to 7 m, according to procedures. The photomaps and orthophotomaps derived from LFC stereomodels are very good and preserve the high level of information.
