For the second true course determining possibility (i.e. the line-of-sight) we use as
A
input the A points or ^ points obtained under oblique angle during previous line flight.
Also, the accurate drift angle is introduced to obtain the correct relative bearing of the
line to be flown; this relative bearing is also the true course output to be made good.
The third true course determining possibility (i.e. the gyro-nadir or gyro-oblique
position of the points when passed over) serve as a check on performance, showing the
true track actually made good.
3.7 Area limitation. Flight line length. Rectangularity.
Deduced reckoning procedures are applied to a high degree of accuracy, using the
displacement vectors and time, and computing DR either by means of standard methods
or by means of doppler.

4. Survey navigation as a system.
The flight elements and their functions are chosen so as to form a logical and
coherent survey navigation system. It can be considered as a skeleton on which good
navigation can be based.
Following this, it is always possible, under whatever conditions of civil aerial survey,
to obtain aerial photography which fulfills the strict specifications of a good flight lay
out. Photo flights should be made in the most economical way and — even more impor
tant — should allow for the most economical restitution.
This skeleton, composed of the functions mentioned in the previous paragraphs, is
presented in the figure on page 15.
Final output:
Flight height over reference Z r
Reference scale E r
Minimum side lap v x
Line spacing A
Line position TT and area limitation.
