INFRARED AND COLOR
LSB: Color—Future use in soil classification
and vegetation surveys.
DLS-WA: Infrared—First work carried out
in June 1963 in a project to determine the
area of high and low tides within a special
area. Results were excellent. Planned at
present— flood photography; city and sub
urban areas will be flown to locate probable
mosquito breeding grounds. Color— Ekta-
chrome tested in location of iron ore and
further photography is planned for forestry
and agriculture purposes. Camouflage de
tection film tested in forestry to locate
“Die-Back” in hardwoods; results fair
only. Future photography is planned in
this and soil surveys.
RASC: Infrared and radar—Under current
consideration for the future.
AAP: Infrared and Color—Limited use at
present.

terrestrial.
