Shows sediments discharged by Rio Catalumba
River in Venezuela, thus illustrating the nature,
extent and projected consequences of sedimentation
to harbors, ports, resorts and marine-life and the
degree of erosion and its likely impact.
"Satellite Photography of the Sea"
Illustrates how information regarding ground
swells, direction and force of currents and other
ocean conditions can be determined from photography
of Cape Horn and the tip of Africa.
Illustrates how underwater and above-water coral
formations can be located and plotted in uncharted
and remote areas of the oceans for the benefit of
mariners.
"Satellite Photography, A Means of Monitoring Land Use"
Shows land use patterns in Venezuela as an example
of how photography could be used to lay out lots, plan
access roads and direct the utilization of land resources
for greater productivity and value.
"Satellite Photography for Assessment of Famine and
Drought in Northern India"
Shows photography can be utilized to determine
that this area is drought-stricken, the degree of crop
loss compared to normal cultivation, the likely effect
on the local inhabitants and the help probably needed.
"Land Use Patterns in South America, Parana Plateau,
Paraguay - Brazil"
Illustrates the contrasting land use patterns on
the Brazil side of the Rio Parana vs the Paraguay side
and suggests use of photography for large area economic
studies for land development. I

Illustrated are numerous dams, most not otherwise
known to exist, which when viewed on successive photography
can indicate floods or drought and probable economic
impact.
Illustrates the location on photography of a salt
dome in an otherwise inaccessible region of North Africa,
thus pointing up the possibilities of locating other
natural resources through identification of geologic
structures in remote, undeveloped, unmapped areas.
'The Identification of Large Faults on Small Scale
Photography"
This photo over Sinkiang Province, China, brings
out its utility for detection of earth faults over
wide areas of the world and the liklihood of earth-
quakes occurring where these faults are found.

"Satellite Photography for Location of Potential
Oil Structure"
Shows photography over an area in Iraq, in
which an oil field is located, in order to illustrate
its utility for identification of geologic structures
favorable to petroleum accumulations.
"The Use of Satellite Photography for General Mapping"
Presents a 1:250,000 map of an area in Western
Siberia.
