PHOTO INTERPRETATION KEY CONVERSION STUDY.
Abstract
This report describes a study to determine the optimum format of the image area of 70mm x 100mm unit record projection chips derived from conventional photographic interpretation keys. An analysis of the physical distribution and arrangement of graphic and textual information on the film chips was made which included a series of human factors tests designed to measure optimum perception of information contained in varying film chip formats. Direct conversion of existing PI key pages to film chips on a one-for-one basis was found to be impracticalbe in view of legibility considerations. Experiments with hard copy mock-ups of film chips revealed that interpreter perceptions, varying annotation schemes, dual image presentations, and by interaction of these factors. No significant effects on perception were found by varying the relative positions on the film chip of given graphic and textual elements. (Author)
