It is desired to express aopreciAtion for thelban af
Lt. N..N. MAN L.R. at your organisation, whoinut sent tc:Raa.
Stattonliedmenham to demonstrate this methods evolved byymkfor '
producing topographical relief models from oblique photographs.
2. Thro.Aghout his stay Lt. JUAN -has been moat helpful and
has sb,own keenness and ability in, developing the various epplioaticus
of yaw methods which have evolved during his stay.
3. The original demonstration oonsisting of the produotion
of a relief model from two oblique photograpns, while in%resting had
little practical application in this theatre awing to the availability
of vertical air photos-aphs of all areas. It was seen at ammo,
however, that the basic method oould be used to solve a number of
problem IwaviousIsy insoluble here.
4. Lt. JU145 as full details of these applications which
he can iake available to you. Details are not therefore giver .
IlL.rewith. Briefly they covered the follocting:
(i) lr.oLtsurinr, of ships 1:hotographed in convoy from obliques
obtainea during bombing and torpedo attacks to give.
sizes at shipes convoy layout, etc.
(ii) Production of silhouettes and deck plans of nhips from
oblirple 11/lotaarivohn.
(iii) 17%azuriug of enealy installatiens, e.g. wireless stations
obtained nn oblipa photographs.
(iv) 2.Tc2motion of a sihade viewing box for Ilse in airoraft
for determinini: the size of ships seen, using on.ly the
readinc J.ven by the aircraft's altimter.
� LILygl use has already been maaa hare operationally of the
uemnstrated by Lt. MAN. Details have also been
pacasse to einilar units overseas, where the applications are likeky to

3. It is telt that suditionel work ahd experiments ehould be
verrted sut toy our ottieo on the matter et determining underwater
depths tyr oblique photegrapky� Per thie purpose, it is suggested that
Liouts 4oram be Paoitie area whore the proper WirOhM810
ter soak experiments oak be fluid. It is osttmhted that two or three
menthe will be required to do this work. In the meantime, however, the
data thus tar developed on underwater depth determination should be
turned over to the burseu et Aorenautios so that they may nake use of
the information.
Its The Pilotes $eale Istimetor is reedy tor use, and should be
turned over to the Army and Navy Departtonts. A emall amount or further
wiprk should be done td produde co very mill model ot the pilotos seale
ontimetftr whioh 04h fit into the palm or one hnnd end whish tAll require
only one hand to operate. Por this purpose Lieut. Juran is making a
trip to Iteseester, New York, to conoult with Ions experts end es to the

(4) Itanogralikr
(h) Perspective Icosamster
(0) Underwater Depth Determination
(d) Pilot's Scale Estimator
In order to maks the best use of these units and to gst then into this,
field as quickly as possitas, the following suggeitions are d. for -
thekr disposition.
1. The work of iconography divides itself into two uses, 1).mn
aid to photo interpretation, 2) as aid in landfall technique (model
building). It is suggested that the work on i0onogreph1 already goonsu
plishati be tarnod over to the Bureau of Aeronautics where thar can put
U to use both in the Photo Interpretation School ab Anacostii, under"'
Communder areen, aod in the Landfall School of the Bureau of Special
Devices Division under Lieut. Togelgesang. It is folt that these orgeini�
teticas with their superior equipment, space, and personnel ellotment'
are la Ina best position to further the interests of and to make use of
t4e&A is:aerations in tomography.
