THE COMPILATION OF A RECONNAISSANCE MAP OF ALEXANDER LAND, ANTARCTICA, FROM TRIMETROGON AIR PHOTOGRAPHS

The accuracy required in the positioning of magnet units of the large CERN Proton Synchrotron imposed preliminary studies of the stability of the superficial ground and of the deep layers before designing the proper foundations. Repeated precise surveys, above and under ground, carried out with a O·1 mm. accuracy, brought to light periodic expansions of the subground (10−6 in relative size), connected with periodic tiltings (10−6 radians), both phenomena being indirect effects of Atlantic Ocean tides. These movements made it necessary to contrive elastic foundations for the magnets. The study of their stability, together with optical refraction considerations, led to the conception of.the method to be used to position the units. A final accuracy of ±0·125 mm. r.m.s. was achieved around the 100 metres radius circle. As a conclusion, possible methods of surveys for future larger synchrotrons are considered.

PRECISION SURVEY OF THE 28 BeV SYNCHROTRON IN THE EUROPEAN ORGANIZATION FOR NUCLEAR RESEARCH

There are signs that long overdue inquiries into the state of their profession are now being conducted by Land Surveyors themselves. The education aspect has been thoroughly investigated at the Colloquium convened last year in Canada, and also by the Wells Report to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors in the United Kingdom. In South Africa, Dr. Biesheuvel has dealt with both the educational and professional. aspects of the private practising profession in a challenging article in the South African Survey Journal of December 1959.

For many years stars have been observed at elongation, or round about elongation, for the purposes of determining azimuth. The method has many advantages, not the least of which is that an accurate knowledge of time is not required. If the instant of observation is known to within seconds—or even to within minutes in some instances—a fairly precise determination of azimuth will result.

CRITERIA FOR THE DETERMINATION OF AZIMUTH BY OBSERVING STARS AT ELONGATION

观测星体大距确定方位角的准则

Since the number of variables which can affect refraction, directly or indirectly, is large, it was decided to bring about simplification by choosing flat, level sites with even surface conditions. This ensured that the effect of topography, aspect and surface conditions was constant along the length of the line. (However, topography beyond the level site could still have a variable effect.) The dependence of refraction on height above ground was to be measured firstly by observing more than one target, at different heights in the same vertical plane, and secondly by varying the height of the observing instrument. The effect of all the factors· determining the temperature of the surface was to be measured by taking the temperature of the surface, and measuring the intensity of radiation reaching the surface.

A STUDY OF REFRACTION IN THE LOWER ATMOSPHERE

下层大气折射研究

The trilateration method of determining geodetic coordinates has become increasingly significant since the introduction of optic-electrical and electronic methods for the measurement of distances. The associated problem of computation and adjustment of trilateration nets has already received much attention, and the solution of large systems of equations does not present unsurmountable difficulties now that electronic computers are more readily available. Nevertheless, it is interesting—and not only for theoretical reasons—to investigate the possibilities of solving this problem using a mecahnical analogue computer based on the principle of elastic systems.

Details of N.P.L. Standard Frequency Radio Signals are given in the D.S.I.R. pamphlet “M.S.F. Standard Frequency Transmissions from the United Kingdom”. In addition, some information about these signals is reproduced in “The Admiralty List of Radio Signals”, Vol. V (1960 Edition, page 46 et seq.).

In the combined adjustment of distance and direction, the use of the correction per unit distance is defended and a method of weighting is proposed which conforms to this. The meaning of the word “weight” in connection with the determination of the precision of the adjusted unknowns or functions of the observations is examined and its use criticised.

H. Biesheuvel

A Considerable volume of literature has been built up on the use of the tellurometer in survey operations, including methods of adjustment of a combined system of angle and length observations. However, very little guidance has, as yet, been given on the relative weights to be attached to each kind of observation; this is a fundamental problem in all systems which include different kinds of observation in one combined solution. Several figures are examined here in which both angles and lengths have been observed to primary standards and in which there are a large number of conditions in each solution figure. This investigation leads to quite definite recommendations which are, moreover, simple in application and which should give the best possible results.
