AAA SITE SURVEY
NORTH VIETNAM
The "AAA Site Survey, North Vietnam," provides a con-
solidated listing of all sites observed on the latest aerial
photography. New mission inputs will provide information
on newly identified sites, changes in status (occupancy),
and will report those previously reported sites which
appear abandoned or dismantled
For reporting purposes, AAA defenses are divided into
three basic categories: Heavy machine gun AA (50 cal.
and 12.7 mm); Light (ZPU-1, ZPU-2, ZPU-4,37mm);
Medium (57mm, 85mm); and Heavy (100mm and larger).
The computer tabulation provides the following infor-
mation, from left to right, in two or more line entries.
A. FIRST LINE
(1) Installation Number -- A unique installation number
containing the standard two letter country designator, a
two digit province designator, and a four digit installation
designator within the province. The ALPHA E denotes
the NPIC report type. A map showing provinces and
their designators is included in this report.
(2) Name -- Name of nearest town or village as derived
from the AMS map series L509, scale 1:250,000, and ab-
breviated within the ten space limitation, as appropriate.
(3) Military District -- A two letter or Roman Numeral
abbreviation of the military district as indicated on
the map included in this report.
(4) Coordinates -- Geographic coordinate derived from
the AMS map series L509, scale 1:250,000 and/or
AMS map series L701, scale 1:50,000. In case of
multiple sites reported under the same installation
number, the coordinate represents the centermost
coordinate.
(5) UTM - UTM coordinate, derived from the AMS
series L509, scale 1:250,000 and/or AMS map series
L701, scale 1:50,000, carried to the nearest 100
meters. In case of multiple sites reported under the
same installation number, the coordinate represents
the centermost coordinate.
(6) Status--Listed as active, inactive, or dummy; or,
in the case of previously reported sites, those ob-
served on later photography to be dismantled.
B. SECOND LINE
(1) Date -- Date of information (photography) from which
the report is derived.
(2) Mission -- Mission Alpha/numeric designator from
which the report is derived.
(3) Frame -- Frame number(s) from which the report is
derived. The IBM program provides for a maximum of
two selected frame numbers. In cases where the instal-
lation is imaged on more than two frames, the two best-
quality frames are recorded. The alpha designator pre -
ceeding the frame number denotes the cameraposition.
(4) Count - - Site, position, and equipment count normally
expressed by a single digit in the case of site(s), and no
more than two digits in the case of positions(s) and
equipment.
(5) Site Category -- Site category preceded by degree of
confidence.
The third and following lines report the number of posi-
tions occupied and/or unoccupied; the size of the weapon

(light, medium, or heavy); other equipment by count and type
(fire control radar, fire director, etc.); and associated vehi-
cles, as appropriate.
When two or more sites are carried under the same
installation number, normally they will be reported in their
entirety and one will immediately follow the other.
Several abbreviations appearing in the "Equipment
Type" column include: PROB. (Probable), POSS. (Pos-
sible), LT. (Light), MED. (Medium), HVY. (Heavy), PSN.
(Position), OCC. (Occupied), and UNOCC. (Unoccupied),
HMGAA (Heavy Machine Gun Antiaircraft). Other abbrevi-
ations may appear in this column when equipment and/or
vehicles are reported and as imposed by report space
limitations. In an installation containing more than one
site, the "Equipment Type" column will also indicate
the number either dismantled or not observed.
The computer program provides for six separate runs
or sorts which are presented in the report in the following
sequence.
