Overall, the goal of Photogrammar is to create visual evidence of government initiatives. The introduction of Photogrammar describes the project as “One of the most famous documentary photography collections of the twentieth century, the “Historic Section” created visual evidence of government initiatives alongside scenes of everyday life during the Great Depression and World War II across the United States.”
The most dominant goals of the project are historical preservation, accessibility, education, engagement, and visual storytelling. The audience for these specific goals includes educators, historians, photographers, and the general public.
Photogrammar connects to Lisa Spiro’s goals of DH through the interdisciplinary approach, and collegiality and connectedness. For example, the relation to interdisciplinary approach includes the invitation of collaboration across different disciplines. The most relevant discipline found in Photogrammar would have to be history.
