Book excerpt: The procedures and results of extensive pre and postshot aerial photographic coverage by naval aircraft are described and evaluated. Objectives were to use high performance photo aircraft to document pre and postshot ground zero area conditions, to provide aerial photographs for immediate onsite use in operations and to determine the unique advantages, if any, of this type of photographic coverage. One preshot and three postshot photo missions were run over the ground zero area by flights of two supersonic F8U-1P (Crusader) jet aircraft of the Pacific Fleet. During each mission, black and white, infra-red and color films were exposed. Missions were initially limited to coverage of the immediate crater area but later expanded in area to include the extensive up-wind and cross-wind base surge deposition area.

Book excerpt: The procedures and results of extensive pre- and postshot aerial photographic coverage by naval aircraft are described and evaluated. Objectives were to use highperformance photo aircraft to document pre- and postshot ground zero area conditions, to provide aerial photographs for immediate onsite use in operations, and to determine the unique advantages, if any, of this type of photographic coverage. One preshot and three postshot photo missions were run over the ground zero area by flights of two supersonic F8U-1P (Crusader) jet aircraft of the Pacific Fleet. During each mission black and white, infrared, and color films were exposed. Missions were initially limited to coverage of the immediate crater area but later expanded in area to include the extensive up-wind and cross-wind base surge deposition area. Results indicated that no particular advantage resulted from use of color and infrared film; black and white film proved quite adequate, at least for the low color-contrast area characteristic of the Nevada Test Site. Interim photointerpretation stereo techniques provided the initial gross crater measurements. More deliberate photogrammetric efforts were later employed to locate crater contours and vertical profiles, relative to the bottom of the crater. The strong correlation of the residual contamination and the highly visible up-wind and cross-wind base surge deposition area is demonstrated. The potential value of a naval aerial photography in such events is discussed within the context of recent technological advances. It is concluded that such naval aerial photographic coverage is of considerable value in the rapid assessment of the gross effects of such large scale nuclear excavation events. (auth).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although photography was already a well-established fixture of 19th century society, it was the marriage of photography and the airplane that created the new military art of aerial observation during World War I. Shooting the Front is a pioneering study of the impact of aerial photography on America's fledgling air force during its baptism of fire above the trenches of the Western Front. This comprehensive history from the Defense Intelligence Agency highlights aerial photography's ability to command the high ground and provide a concise view of a battle area, both tactically and strategically. It is an authoritative account of aerial reconnaissance and the interpretation of photographs as they evolved into the most important sources of intelligence along the entire Western Front during the Great War. This comprehensive resource will interest military history and aviation enthusiasts, as well as students of the history of intelligence. The numerous illustrations, many never before published, include images of aircraft, cameras, and people, authentic official aerial photos, and maps in varying scales, all designed to help the reader relive the exhilarating and dangerous experience of aerial observation in World War I.

Download or read book Operational Test of 70 Mm Format High Altitude Photography for Mapping written by Richard F. Gettys and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of limited operational tests to determine the potential of high altitude 70 mm. format aerial photography for mapping are presented. The evaluated system consisted of 11/2-in. focal length LA-26 and X70-2 cameras for basic vertical coverage, 3-1in. focal length LA-27 cameras for split vertical supplemental coverage, the X-PAX-1 multiplex reduction printer, and a wide-angle multiplex plotter. An F8U-1P aircraft was used, flying at an altitude of 42,000 ft. above sea leval. A topographic map was compiled by multiplex from two stereo models which partially covered the test area. The horizontal and vertical positions of 94 geodetic control points, and the elevations of 26 additional bench marks were also recorded on the compilation manuscript. The values established by multiplex were compared with the corresponding values as listed by the Army Map Service. A 75-mile multiplex cantilever control extension consisting of 15 stereo models was performed. Horizontal adjustment was made by electronic computer; and vertical adjustment by graphical techniques. The adjusted valves were compared with the scale horizontal coordinates and elevations obtained directly or interpolated from AMS 1:25,000 scale maps. (Author).
