tional page if required) The optimization of imagery interpretation functions at
NPIC is the key to adapting the Center to the ever-increasing workload being levied
upon it. By experimenting in controlled, but near-operational conditions, psycho-
physical analysis of human factors problems can be accomplished most accurately.
This contract will involve the investigating of resolution requirements for the
photographic interpretation of several specific target categoties as well as a
first study of line scan imagery exploitation human factors.
