Synthesis Guide for Cross-Country Movement. report Number 4 in the ETL series on Guides for Army Terrain Analysts

Abstract

This report provides step-by-step instructions for compiling a cross- country movement map from previously prepared factor overlays. The information on the factor overlays is combined, or synthesized, manually with or without the aid of a simple mathematical model. Three synthesis methods are given: (1) using a mathematical model; (2) using a mathematical model with a programable calculator (HP-97), and (3) using a qualitative, non-mathematical procedure.
