not been put into the public domain.
Here are some subject keywords with which you can obtain a LIST of
several hundred military technical reports on 3D - photography and
related subjects from the Defense Technical Information Center, a
government agency. [see way down below] Suggest you limit the number of
keywords you select to ten or less.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not bother using the DTIC web site--in a nutshell,
it is worthless because the web site omits most of the two million
technical reports in the DTIC collection. [Most of these reports are
NOT, repeat NOT, repeat NOT in the NTIS collection, and have been
unavailable to the public.] Send a letter instead--you will get much
better results.
The fee is likely to be free or only a few bucks. You probably want to
include a statement in the letter such as *I agree to pay reasonable
fees associated with this request. Please notify me if the cost will
exceed $25.*, so that they won't delay the processing of the request.
Remember, they WILL try to dissuade you from asking for such a list. If
they send you a letter, and you do not respond, they will withdraw your
request and you will not get your information.
Here is a form letter to use for your request:
To: Defense Technical Information Center
Attn: DTIC-RSM [Kelly D. Akers, FOIA Manager]
8725 John J. Kingman Road, Suite 0944

This is a request for DTIC records. Please don't forward my request to

Sincerely,
