Based on the latest aerial photographic missions available to the NPIC, it updates the most recent weekly supplement or monthly report, and provides informa- tion on newly identified sites, which after initaial reporting will be carried only when occupied. Previously reported unoccupied sites will be evaluated on a mission-by-mis- sion basis, and reported immediately when first observed to be occupied. For reporting purposes, AAA defenses are divided into three basic categories: HMGAA (50 cal. and 12.7mm), light (ZPU-1, ZPU-2, ZPU-4, 37mm), medium (57mm, 85 mm), and heavy (LOOmm and larger). The computer tabulation provides the following infor- mation, from left to right, in two or more lines entires. 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 or dummy. Only occupied dummy sites will be reported. 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. as appropriate). (3) Frame --Frame number(s)from which the report is derived. The IBM program provides for a maximum of two selected frame numbers. Incases 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 camera position. (4) Count --Site, position, andequipment count normally expressed by a single digit in the case of site(s), and no more than two digits in the case of position(s) and equipment. (5) Site Category--Site category preceded by degree 25X1A 25X1A Approved For Release 2000/04/17 ~Q,-~f~7,$~Q?~60A0~~A010018-0 NO FOREIGN DISSEM 'v r' u C Iv I/~ Approved For Rele~ ~J~~~1~~ of confidence. The third and following lines report the number of positions 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 vehicles, 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. (Possible), LT. (Light), MED. (Medium), HVY. (Heavy), PSN. (Position), Approved For Release 2000/04/1 ~. OCC. (Occupied), UNOCC. (Unoccupied), and HMGAA (Heavy Machine Gun Antiaircraft). Other abbreviations 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 "Equip- ment Type" column will also indicate the number either dismantled or not observed. Sites are arranged by geographic coordinates in ascend- ing order. Upon request, NPIC can provide additional listings in any of the following sequences: installation number, alphabetic, military district, UTM coordinates, or date of information. rr 25X1 C Approved For Re?eQ F ~ - 78B04560A005400010018-0 NO FOREIGN DISSEM 1.
