City, Installation--This column contains the name of
the city or town nearest the installation, followed by the
name of the installation. If the name of the installation is
not known, it is titled according to its function. Where
appropriate, the city and installation names are followed by
a capsule description.
Coordinates--Coordinates are referenced to the SW
corner of the minute square. When the subject installation
covers a wide area, coordinates are given for the approxi-
mate center of the installation.
WAC--This column provides the World Aeronautical
Chart number for that area in which the subject installation
is situated.
Installation Numbers--This column is divided into two
subcolumns. The first subcolumn lists, when known, the
BE installation number assigned to the installation. The
second subcolumn lists the installation number assigned by
NPIC. Installation numbers, when used to reference an
item, should be prefixed by the appropriate WAC number,
since installation numbers are repeated from WAC to
WAC. For example, there is an NPIC target number
0499-15-A and an NPIC target number 0498-15-A. In each
instance, the NPIC installation number is 15-A, but the
installations appear on different WAC charts.
Target numbers assigned by the Committee on Over-
head Reconnaissance (COMOR), when available, are listed
directly above the photo reference data.
The photo reference data indicates the frame(s) on
which the installation appears.
Following the photo reference data, symbols indicate
conditions which affect the appearance of the installation
on the photography. The symbols are: C (clear); SC
(scattered clouds); HC (heavy clouds); SC-HC (scattered-
to-heavy clouds); H (haze); CS (cloud shadow); SD (semi-
darkness); 0 (obliquity); and PQ (poor image quality).
