25X1A
25X1A 1. I lwill provide technical assistance, as required,
to establish proven teary which will produce valid output from the
25X1A
25X1A
1032T trichromatic microdensitometer. This work will include an
investigation to determine proper location of filters.
2. will furnish documentation, in support of the
theory, establishing the analysis and logic required to provide informs--
tion processing routines for automatic data reduction of the microdensi?-
tometer output. These routines (to be developed by the Government) will
facilitate technical and intelligence analysis of simple and multilayer
emulsion films. I lwill be required to develop limited
routines in support or a oregoing and will furnish documentation
(copies of working papers are understood to be acceptable) in support
of these routines which will include:
a. Complete listing of the deck for each FOBTB program.
b. Documentation for each FORTRAN program consisting of:
(1) Block diagram of the program showing the exact flow
of this data and operation performed on it.
(2) Detailed description of all input data such as.
range and number of data values; purpose, definition and
values of all constants; settings on the NPIC Microdensitometer
that are peculiar to the program.
(3) Detailed description of all output data such as: range
of values; what the cause could be if the values are out of
range (assuming the program is in production status; what
assumption and conclusion can be drawn from the output.)
(4) Detailed description of all mathematical analysis
methods in the program, equations and relevant diagrams.
(5) Description of any option in the program and any
other uses the program might have.
(6) Glossary of terms.

c. Complete set of test data for each program including inter--
mediate calculations and the output. Whenever possible all input
data to any proem will be combined on magnetic tape in the format
generated by the microdensiton.eter. The only exception might be
when input to one program is output of another.
25X1A 3. will provide test objects and test routines for

plished. The rough draft of this final report will be submitted thirty
days before contract termination date, and the final copies will be delivered
to the customer thirty days after approval of rough draft.

I. Color ExDoz-v
This is the completion of the effective exposure table selection and
generation. Witho4 this capability, the effective exposure principle
cannot be used in the computation of color MTF. This task has five subtasks
as follovs.
a. Completion of the characteristic matrix program
Scalar array computation and regression fitting to generate the
equations relating imager, color to scalar array
of the exposure table generator and exposure selection
d. Testing of the final color exposure generator
Reporting and Docunenation
III. Color Modulation Transfer Function
This phase completes the study of the properties of WIF of color
emulsions initiated under previous tasks. Its objectivep:is to provide
a means for rfF generation and an analysis and interpretation of their
value and meaning of such measurements in the color situation. The
study will be composed. of the folwing five sub}tasks
a. Color target generation
ransforr. methods (edges, combs)
c. Standard transforms (edges, combs)
d. Analysis
e. Reporting and Documentation

IV. Direction Cosigns and Color Tripa-ck, Calibration
This task completes work required to implement the cal$bration procedure
established under previous efforts. The methods are well defined and all
progra is is completed and in operation. The following tasks remain to
be accomplished to make this an operational procedure.
a. Bpeetrophoto metric work
b. Direction Cosine
c. Micro..., calibration
d. Peporting.and Documentation
