Extract

The introduction of rational performance requirements governing the operation of civil transport aircraft has given rise to a need for accurate and detailed information on obstructions in the vicinity of aerodromes. This paper states the origin and nature of the requirement and describes a survey technique, a particular application of terrestrial photogrammetry, which was used to meet it.

In the United Kingdom and in other member countries of the International Civil Aviation Organisation considerable progress has been made towards the rationalisation of performance requirements governing the operation of civil transport aircraft.
