Targets are arranged 1) within the country by subject, 2) within the subject by WAC area, and 3) within the WAC area by geographic coordinates in ascending order. Coverage on each target will be presented in chrono- logical order. Aircraft and naval vessels observed in untargeted areas will be listed separately at the end of this report. An explanation of column headings and photo references used in presenting the infoririation is contained in the appendix.

If the name of the installation is not known, it is titled according to its function. Where appropriate, the city and instaliation names are followed by a capsule description. Coordinates--Coordinates are referenced to the SVv corner of the minute square. when the subject installation covers a wide area, coordinates are given for the approxi- mate center of the installation. `SAC-- i his column provides the ~'~'orld Aeronautical _~ .~, ,. ,h:o~r ineta~~ATIOn Chart number for that area in wf.i~~, ~~~ su.,~..--~ --?~---- is situated. installation Nurnt~~ers--This column i5 divided into two ---- - ------_,__..,.._..~ ,;pro ,~-hPn knrn~~n. the subcolumns. The first suu~~iul.,~, ~~J-~, ....~-- --- BE installati~~n 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 Vd AC number, since installation numbers are repeated from "w'AC to v~'AC. For example, there is an NPIC target number 0468-1~-A and an NPIC target number 0467-I5-A. In each instance, the NPIC installation number is 16-A, but the installations appear on different WAC charts. Target numbers assigned by the Committee on Over- head Reconnaissance (COMDR), when available, are listed directly above the photo reference data. PHOTO REFERENCE DATA The photo reference data indicates the frame(s) on which the installation appears. CONDITIONS AFFECTING PHOTOGRAPHY Following the photo reference data, symbols indicate conditions which affect the appearance of the tnstaiiation on the photography. The symbols are: C (clear), SC (scattered cloud cover), H (haae), CS (cloud s".allow), HC (heavy cloud cover), SD (semidarkness), S (snow), O (obli- quity), GC (ground cover), CF (camouflage), and GR (ground resolution). Interpretability of the photography is categoriae~d as G (good), F (fair), or P (poor). Target coverage is denoted by the symbols T (total) or PT (partial). The mode of coverage is indicated by ST (stereo), NS (nonstereo), or PS (partial stereo).
