Alaskan Air Navigation Requirements. Volume III. FAA Alaskan VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Site Coverage.

Abstract

Map overlays were developed for 30 existing and 28 proposed VOR sites in Alaska for the Federal Aviation Administration. The overlays were to be utilized to determine the VOR coverage provided by these sites in Alaska. A new terrain-data extraction technique, called the Chromatic Extraction Technique, was developed for this task and is described. (Author)
