RAYTHEON COMPANY 
Maurice E. Foley 
The Vermont Mapping Program will provide a systematic base for 
property mapping throughout Vermont for the client agency and a 
multi-purpose base for other State and Federal agencies as well. 
Raytheon will deliver orthophoto maps at scales of 1:5000 statewide 
and 1:1250 in urban areas. The aerial photography is at scale of 
1:50,000 and 1:25,000 for the areawide mapping, and at 1:6,250 for 
the urban area mapping. All orthophoto maps are compiled on a Kelsh 
K-320 Orthoscan instrument, while line-and-symbol maps are made on 
a Kelsh PP3 stereocompiler. Other equipment and instrumentation 
involved includes the PUG, Mann Comparator, Haag-Streit coordinatograph 
and the IBM 370/155 and CDC-6700 computers with Raytheon MUSAT 
analytical triangulation software. 
The Staten Island Graphic Mapping Application (SIGMA) program 
Will provide an accurately plottable data base, in digital form, of 
Brooklyn Union's underground gas distribution network on Staten Island, 
New York. The program requires establishment of ground control, col- 
lection of aerial photography, analytical aerotriangulation, digital 
compilation of selected planimetry at 1:480 scale and spot elevations 
at 100 ft. intervals along street centerlines, rationalization and 
construction in digital form on the planimetric base of the underground 
network as portrayed in field books dating back ninety years, and 
development of data handling and system analysis software.  Raytheon will 
also provide technical assistance in putting system hardware in operation 
at the customer's facility. 
The Natural Resource Information System (NRIS) was the development 
of a pilot digital information system for the Bureau of Indian Affairs. 
The five major tasks were: (1) development of software for digital 
map file maintenance and Processing; (2) determination of user require- 
ments for data base content and manipulation; (3) preparation of a 
digital base from real map data, and determination of costs; 
(4) study of hardware alternatives; (5) demonstration of pilot 
system operations. 
SPECTRAL DATA CORPORATION 
E. Yost 
Spectral Data has developed instruments and techniques to perfect 
multispectral aerial photography as a remote sensing tool for a 
number of applications. 
Instrument development included the following items:
