APPLICATION OF PHOTO INTERPRETATION 
IN ROUTE LOCATION 
by Robert R. Blesch 
Aero Service Corporation, Philadelphia 
and Ta Liang 
Cornell University, New York 
Abstract The techniques of photo interpretation in route location from early reconnaissance 
through construction stages are examined, including the correlation of air and ground investi 
gations with photo interpretation, the designation of mapping units to facilitate preliminary 
engineering planning and location, and the detailed interpretations in assisting final design and 
construction. 
The recently completed 200-mile Quebec Cartier Mining Railway in Canada is referred to as 
a specific example. This railway, linking mining areas in northern Quebec Province to the 
St. Lawrence River, is believed to be one of the major transportation projects that make full 
use of photo interpretation methods throughout its development. Accuracy of interpretations as 
revealed during construction stages are reviewed and illustrated with before-and-after photo 
graphs. 
From the operating viewpoint, the organization of, and relationship among, photo interpreters, 
engineers, geologists, and management to form an effective team are discussed. 
Résumé On examine les techniques de l’interprétation photographique dans la location 
d’itinéraires utilisées depuis les premiers stades de reconnaissance jusqu’à ceux de réalisation et 
comprenant les corrélations entre investigations terrestres et aériennes avec l’interprétation 
photographique, la désignation des unités cartographiques destinées à faciliter la localisation 
et le planning d’itinéraires et d’ouvrages d’art, les interprétations détaillées servant aux plans 
et aux réalisations définitifs. 
On cite comme exemple spécifique le Quebec Cartier Mining Railway long de 200 miles et 
récemment achevé. Ce chemin-de-fer qui joint les régions minières du nord de la province de 
Québec au St. Laurent est considéré comme l’un des projets de transport les plus importants 
à ne s’être uniquement servi au cours de toute sa réalisation que de méthodes d’interprétation 
photographique. La précision de l’interprétation telle qu’elle fut démontrée au courant de la 
construction des travaux s’est vue confirmée à nouveau par des photographies d’avant et 
d’après. 
On discute également d’un point de vue pratique de l’organisation et des relations entre inter- 
prétateurs photographes, ingénieurs et géologues, ainsi que des exigences requises à la mise sur 
pied d’une équipe scientifique. 
Zusammenfassung Die Prinzipien und Verfahren der Lichtbildauswertung bei Strecken 
bestimmungen, von vorläufiger Rekognoszierung bis zu den Bauetappen wurden untersucht, 
einschliesslich der Wechselbeziehung von Luft- und Geländeuntersuchungen zur Lichtbild 
auswertung, der Bestimmung von Landkarteneinheiten, um die vorläufige technische Planung 
und Streckenbestimmung zu erleichtern und der ausführlichen Auswertung zur Unter 
stützung des endgültigen Entwurfs und Baues. 
Als bestimmtes Beispiel beziehen wir uns auf die 200 Meilen lange Quebec Cartier Bergbau 
bahn in Kanada, die kürzlich fertiggestellt wurde. Diese, die Bergbaugegenden im nördlichen 
Teil der Provinz Quebec mit dem St. Lawrence Fluss verbindende Eisenbahn, wird als eines 
der Flaupttransportprojekte angesehen, welches vollen Gebrauch macht von photographi 
schen Auswertungsmethoden während seiner ganzen Entwicklung. Die sich während der Bau 
etappen ergebende Genauigkeit der Auswertungen, wird besprochen und mit vor und nach 
den Bau aufgenommenen Lichtbilder belegt. 
Vom Gesichtspunkt der Praxis aus, werden die Beziehungen zwischen Lichtbildauswertern, 
Ingenieuren, Geologen und Verwaltung und ihrer Organisation zur Heranbildung einer 
wirksamen Arbeitsgruppe besprochen.
