graduate studies for surveyors and civil
engineers—Research.
Mapping 1:250-1:1,000,000 aerial photog
raphy, normal, wide and superwide angle.
Photography and large scale mapping for
road planning and construction.
Definition of soil types; research purposes;
study of off shore water pollution; teaching;
experimental work in computing earth
work and road alignment data directly
from photos by means of electronic com
puter.

WILD HEERBRUGG, INC., HEERBRUGG
cameras. RC8 Aerial Camera—automatic
film camera with interchangeable lens cones:
21 cm. Aviotar, 18X18 cm.; 11.5 cm. Avio
gon, 18X18 cm.; 6 in. Aviogon, 9X9 in.
Objectives for infrared photography: same
characteristics as above.
Changes: Universal suspension device
(camera mount to kill vibrations, etc.); Stato-
scope and horizon camera. Navigation tele
scope with detachable head; Kodak projec
tion apparatus for using horizon photography.
APPARATUS FOR TRANSFORMATION OF IMAGES.
(Reducing-Enlarging) Image Transformers
U3 and U4. U3, no change. U4, with auto
matic adjustment of contrast by electronic
method, the “Cintel System.”
E4 Rectification Camera (New). Equation
of conjugate points and Scheimflug condition
are introduced electronically, which permits
simplified construction.
Enlarger VGI. Change: Projection table is
provided with a depression device making the
sensitized paper strictly flat.
stereoplotting machines—(Camera) (Plot
ter)
Allograph B8—for plotting wide-angle pho
tography and super-wide angular photogra
phy without reducing size of photos. Changes:
addition of large linear pantograph; move
ment of tracing pencil along the bearing arm
is controlled by a wire of invariable length,
which makes the construction very light. The
ratio of enlargement can go to 1:5.
Stereomat (In Research)
Transfer Apparatus PUG 3. For transferr
ing passpoints from one photo to the other in
aerial triangulation.
KERN & CIE S.A., AARAU
Stereorestituteur RGI—First-order plotting
equipment. No change.
Stereorestituteur PG2—Second-order plot
ting equipment. No change.
G. GORADI AG., ZURICH
Coradomat (New)—Coordinatograph for
transferring points by orthogonal coordi
nates. Finger control of transfer and drawing
straight lines. Conversion of scales. Measure
ment of coordinates of points shown on a
plan.
Digimeter (New)—Apparatus to measure
coordinates of points shown on a plan for
computing area of lots.
CONTRAVES AG., ZURICH, HAAG-STREIT AG.,
BERNE
Numerical input coordinatograph (New)—
Apparatus for automatic transfer of points
