2.3.3 Instrumentation:
a.
Shoran, Hiran, Shiran and similar equipment
Or:
Decca navigator and derivates
Or:
Tellurometer, Aerodist and similar ones
Note: This type of equipment is typically applied to determine ground
control. The beacons, transponders, monitors and other ground
stations must be set up in or near the survey area — at known
positions — under the surveyor's control.
Omega and/or other VLF navigation systems
Note: These global navigation systems are based on a few existing ground
transmitter stations. Omega and/or other VLF systems are develop-
ed for general navigation purposes. Nevertheless, special survey
equipment is offered which seems to fulfil small and medium scale
requirements or which is used as an aid to visual survey navigation
methods.
all (equipment a. and b.) including the corresponding airborne and ground
equipment (Radar altimeter)
Relatively simple compass
Navigation telescope
(Drift sight)
Air/ground intercom
Monitor ground station
No. 4 Purely airborne navigation
2.4.1 Methods:
The most important self-contained purely airborne navigation methods
are Doppler, and Inertial Navigation Systems (INS).
2.4.2 Applications:
General aviation navigation
Airline navigation
Survey navigation in areas where the maps are inadequate
Navigation and positioning for geophysical surveys
Note: Both Doppler and INS are the heart of many integrated special
purpose navigation systems, used for a great variety of purposes.
