REPORT OF COMMISSION II: PLOTTING, THEORY AND INSTRUMENTS 
W 
17 
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.

Management, ranges from 1 to 5, average 
of 2; Supervision, 0 to 6, 1; Professional, 1 to 
5, 3; Technicians, 1 to 30, 12; Servicing 0 to 
2, 1.

Aerial Data Recording 
cameras: RMK 15/23, 6", Pleogon, 9X9; 
RC5, 114 mm., Aviogon, 18X18 cm.; RC5A, 
152 mm., Aviogon, 9X9; RC8, 152 mm., 
Aviogon, 9X9; RC9, 88 mm., Super Avio 
gon, 9X9; RMKA 15/23, 152 mm., Pleogon, 
9X9; RC5, 210 mm., Aviotar, 18X18 cm.; 
RC8; 4| in., Aviogon, 7x7; RC8, 6 in., W/A, 
9X9. 
RECORDING MEDIUM 
Infrared,—identification of soil types and sur 
vey in densely wooded areas. 
New Instruments 
Instrument—Wild PUG 2; Wild B8 Avio- 
graph. 
Purpose—For aerial triangulation plotting, 
education and research. 
SWITZERLAND 
Photogrammetric Instruments Manufac 
tured in Switzerland and Changes 
Made Since 1961 
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
