D/GP BASIC PHOTO INTERPRETATION COURSE
The general introduction to photo interpretation contained
in the first two periods of this course are suitable for use as
a preface to any geographical or special-subject P.I. course to
be developed later. The third period, introducing the general
principals of industrial analysis is also of wide interest. The
remaining periods are devoted to straight industrial interpreta-
tion.
The course is divided into seven periods of three hours each,
as follows t
Period 1. Introduction to Photo Intelligence
Period 2. Basic Photo Interpretation Techniques
Period 3. Introduction to Industrial Analysis; Electric Power
Period 4. Industrial Analysis: Coke, Iron and Steel
Period 5. Industrial Analysis: Non-Ferrous Metals and Assembly
Period 6. Industrial Analysis: Petroleum
Period 7: Final Review of Industrial Analysis; Explosives
Additional industrial subjects available for instruction (Seo?)
include:
Synthetic Oil
Synthetic Rubber
Nitrogen Industries
Misc. Chemical Industries
Aircraft Industry
Ship-building
Misc. Assembly Industries
Lumber and Cement Industries
Most of these could be advantageously dealt with in part of
a period, in combination with another.
Further subjects which may merit developing area

The distinctive feature of the industrial portion of this
course is that students are taught a systematic method for ana-
lyzing cover of industry in general. This method is embodied
in the D/GP manual, "How to Recognise and Analyse Industry from
Air Photographs." It has been developed to meet the special
needs of persons taking this course, to assist them in making
use of the conventional "recognition feature" type of industrial
key, and to protect them, as beginners, from hasty judgements
and confusion in the wealth of detail confronting them on air
photographs. In this manner it is hoped to avoid ill results
from the highly condensed nature of this course.
The selection and distribution of number-keyed stereograms
to illustrate this manual is foreseen as a continuing D/GP
activity which will keep the manual up-to-date with minimum
effort and place a valuable intelligence tool in the hands of
other divisions.
Use of Time:
In general, the first two hours of each period are devoted
to substantive instruction, and the last hour to testing and
review.
Texts, references and instructions will be issued at each
period to be included in the students' P.I. notebooks, thus
doing away with the taking of notes and giving maximum time for
actual practice in photo interpretation.
Out-of-Class Work:
Photographic packets are available for issue to students who
wish to work up a detailed interpretation of an industrial area.
These include both class sets and one-of-a-kind packets, all on
the USSR. (See Vol. II of the D/GP Index to P.I. Instruction
Material). In practice so far, out-of-class work has been issued
only on individual request to suit the needs and time of students.
More formal procedure and credit provisions are desirable.
Instruction Material Available:
The instruction material, tests and reference material for
each subject are listed under the appropriate heading in the
remainder of this outline. In addition, there are three master
indices of material available in D/GP, as follows:

Testa :
Substantive tests and problems are judged to be of prime in-
structional value provided full answers are given after students'
answers are passed in and while they have the photography still before
them to study. Tests provided a check on the instructor's effective-
ness, and should be redesigned and perfected to the basis of exper-
ience. A clear understanding of exactly what the students are get-
ting must be developed. The repetition of certain tests will also
yield valuable information.
In addition to the substantive tests on industrial subjects,
a series of tests have been developed to reveal base levels of
visual-mental skill, These tests are given at the start of the
course to identify those individuals who have special problems
which would hinder them from benefitting from the course, unless
corrected. In this way they can be given immediate help. A side
benefit of these tests will be to reveal the base levels of
visual skills which can be expected in such a student body.
These tests are described more fully under the various headings
in which they occur.
Continuing Problem and Reviews
Review is provided by a "Continuing Problem," consisting of a
packet of photography over a complex industrial area in the USSR.
At the and of each period the students turn to this problem and
pick out the installations taught that day. As the course pro-
gresses a full picture of the area is built up, including many
featubes of a non-industrial nature. The instructor must be pre-
pared for every conceivable question about the scene. If desired,
this problem might be carried on out of class, but the instructor
should be forewarned that it will require a great deal of his
time adequately to check such work to the student's satisfaction.
Individual Consultations:
In practice, personal attention has been found necessary for
students having stereo trouble, or those trying to overcome un-
familiarity with basic industrial terms.
Individual variation in time, aptitude and interest are great.
Some provision should be made for those spending extra time.
Grading:
Due to the individual variation noted above, some provision

 Approved For Release 1999/09/22 : CIA-RDP80-01333A000300160001-9
should be worked out for a flexible grading system showing relative
improvement as well as absolute competence attain6d. This is parti-
cularly true where the individual starts with a considerable handi-
cap of ignorance about industry* Account should also be taken of those
who attain superior absolute oompetenoe.(See Recommendation on P.I.
Grading, below.)
Recommended Grading of P.I. Students:
In practice, insufficient time has passed to establish s "normal"
performance. However, certain general performance types have been
noted, as follows:
1) Persons failing to attend two or more periods, thus missing a
large proportion of such a condensed course.
P.I.
2) Persons with very poorAaptitude and interest, a small per-
centage. Due usually to visual or visual-mental defects.
3) Persons with good P.I. aptitude and interest, but without
adequate industrial backgrounds. Potential general interpreters.
4) Persons with good P.I. aptitude and interest and with well
developed industrial backgrounds. Potentially superior in-
dustrial interpreters.
5) Persons of fair P.I. aptitude and interest, with or without
industrial backgrounds. Such persons may be considered to
have been introduced to photo intelligence and photo inter-
pretation, rather than having acquired a promising degree
of skill. Potential users of interpretation products.
It is therefore suggested that the grading and personnel reports
on atudents be divided as follows:
Attended Course (6 or more periods, otherwise incomplete.)
Grasp of P.I. capabilities
P.I. ability and interest, general
P.I. ability and interest, industrial
It is very desirable that D/GP ensured formal recognition for
those individuals who attain real industrial PI* oompetenoe. With
practice, such individuals may be expected to excel many presently
accredited industrial interpreters, and a record should be made of
the location of these developing skills.

The purpose of this test is to identify those individuals
with visual difficulties who will not get full value from the
course unless given special help. It has been found that per-
sons without effective binocular vision often develops excel-
lent monocular depth perception and are reluctant to realise
they are no getting stereo. They can be helped by showing them
how to '" "`aiov,i the weaker eye (see below). This
must be done as early as possible. This test also benefits
normal persons by giving them an advance taste of vertical
stereo under easy conditions.
Test consists of 4 sheets of atereogrems, a question
sheet and a 5 x 8" card for answers. ( J,,AL* at T-''" ?)
Sheet A. Three stereograms, of which one is in reverse
stereo. Students are asked to pick the one
which "looks different."
Sheet Be Four stereograms of low and tall buildings, an-
notated. Students are asked to list tallest.
Sheet C. Four terrain stereograms, some procedure as Be
Sheet D. Stereogram of Union Station rail yards, showing
trains in motion and stopped. Students are
asked to count moving trains.
Since this test is immediately followed by the Visual
orientation test on a tight time schedule, answers must be
postponed until and of period.
Materials rcguireds Class sets of test packets; 'soopesj$ 5x8 cards.
Notes Method for helping those found to have stereo trouble
caused one weak eyes s method app es only were the
trouble to caused psychological blocking of data from
the weaker eye; eye must be capable of getting some kind
of picture,) In individual consultation instructor explains
psychological blocking principle. A red mark is made on
member of stereo pair seen by weak eye. Student looks through
scope, holding card over strong eye. When red mark and photo
are well focussed, card is withdrawn. If blocking is severe,
red dot will vanish. Card is replaced, red mark refixated,
card again slowly withdrawn. Even with fairly severe diffi-
culty, praetdioe will result in retaining view of red mark and
weak visual field and stereo will result, Student must be en-
couraged to practice to keep abreast of course.

VISUAL ORIENTATION ABILITY TEST .0"25 t+
The purpose of this test is to identify those individuals
who are deficient in visual facility in general. It will also
benefit normal individuals by giving them experience in the re-
lation of ground and vertical photography of the same field.
The test has been designed to avoid as much as possible penalyz-
ing those who are unfamiliar with industrial structures. It
calls for the ability to transpose views of simple building
shapes and river curves, and accuracy in observing.
The test consists of three problems, graded in order of
difficulty, and a question sheet. C S.- 1 4-4 of 't'-t.)
