The German report referred to a report of the Luft Hansa activities. The
time for complete operations per model on the Stereoplanigraph is given as 9
hours 50 minutes; composed of preparation, 40 minutes; relative orientation,
17 minutes; absolute orientation, 23 minutes; plotting 8 hours 30 minutes. This
refers without doubt to models at 1 : 20,000 for the 1 : 25,000 map. This point
was not definite.
The statistics given in the Austrian report are as follows for a 1 : 50,000
sheet (about 500 sq. km.); 4065 days of work of ten hours composed of 620
days of signal building and topographic operations, 795 days of control obser-
vations and calculations, 650 days of air triangulation and plotting, 2000 days
of field completion on the ground. This refers to plotting at 1:10,000 for maps
ac 1:25,000.
The IGN of Brussels gave 15 hectares per hour per machine (0.06 of mile),
as speed of production for the 1 : 25,000 map.
The Netherlands gave only the area plotted without any data on produc-
tion speed; since 1948 10,000 km? on 1 : 10,000 and 1 : 16.666, the larger part
by rectification.
In Sweden for line maps (in contrast to photo mosaics) at 1 : 10,000 with
> meter contours between 1 and 10 hours are necessary per square kilometer.
Other figures furnished concerned only photo mosaics at 1 : 10,000.
The American report furnished no general statistics but information on
two particular surveys:
For the first, area 849.5 square miles (2,210 km”). Contour interval 10 feet;
scale of map 1 :25,000, of photographs 1 : 12,000, plotting 1 : 5,000: stereos-
. 9 . B ”
copic models: mean area per model 2.25 km?; Ratio - 0.73: Camera 6” T5.

The pass points were determined by air triangulation on the Stereoplanigraph
and the plotting was done by the Multiplex. Total time 29,160 man hours —
average number of hours per model 30 hours; per square mile (2.6 km?) 34
hours 3 minutes; the percentage of time for the operations follows: Air photo-
graphy, assembly of geodetic control and laboratory photography, 3%; Field
inspection, 6% preparation of data, projections and other preparatory opera-
tions 5%; air triangulation 27%: plotting 27%; Compilation of multiplex plot
12%.
Another example furnished by another American organization reports
number of hours per square mile.
Ground control 2 hours and 8 minutes.
Plotting of planimetry and contours
for 10 foot interval 27 hours 1 minute

The scale of the negatives and the maps were not given.
The Swiss reported only the areas surveyed since 1948: 15,000 km? for the
national map 3500 km? for the cadastral map. The cost of photogrammetric
surveys averaged between 60% and 80% of planetable surveys costs,
The report of Finland states 217,000 km? covered by the end of 1951 at
1:20,000 scale. Controlled photo mosaics existing then were 87,400 km? at
1:20,000; 37,000 km? at 1:10,000 and 4.800 km? at 1 : 5,000.
Italy reports about 14,000 km? of 1 :25,000 surveys by the IGM since 1948
