Whittaker, Bruce Bownas CBE (June 4, 1915 - 2000)

Bruce Bownas Whittaker CBE (June 4, 1915 - 2000) was a British civil servant who worked in the Uganda Protectorate, eventually becoming Director of Uganda's Department of Lands and Surveys. Though his career appears to be largely cloaked in anonymity, he appears to have remained courant in his field, co-authoring a study of photogrammetry in the service of land tenure surveys in the early 60s. His tenure in Uganda would last until Uganda's independence in October 1962, but not before the completion of the first national atlas of Uganda in August of that year.
