abstract:At the end of 1921 the Colombian-German Air Transport Company (SCADTA), an aviation pioneer, introduced aerial photography to northern South America. Following the completion of a number of minor projects, the company was commissioned to map the border territory between Colombia and Venezuela, in order to demarcate the boundary between the two countries. This commissioned project, conducted between the months of May and June 1923, represented a milestone in the work of aerial photography in South America. However, it also included an expedition to the impenetrable Catatumbo rain forest, which was allegedly inhabited by "savage Indians" and marked by a process of violent colonization and exploitation. Testimonies from certain members of the aerial photography mission shed light on the local inhabitants' perception of the incursion.

teaching environmental history, ancient cultures, historical cartography, environmental GIS mapping, conflict and security, and disaster preparedness. There is much to learn about these threedimensional worlds and migrating aquatic communities through geomapping and photographing ocean terrains and life. Our knowledge base about oceans’ surfaces and depths will expand with more discoveries and explorations, research grants, museum displays, scholarly journals, and courses and multidisciplinary degree programs with marine foci. Each discovery piques one’s curiosity and appetite. Adventurous and creative members of the local, regional, and global geography communities need to seize on this “expanding research frontier” to come up with some new projections, mapping images using GIS, and satellite imagery to study historical, contemporary, and future ocean topics. Maps will help in understanding some of the early transocean migrations, the resource bases, ocean tourism (surface and subsurface), and ocean environments meriting international protection. We also need atlases showing more than dead zones, shipping routes, dangerous passages, and ocean currents. Roorda’s volume will assist present and future geographers and others in providing teaching materials and launching some new interdisciplinary research programs.
