Pre-Production Model Cartographic EBR System.

Abstract

The Pre-production Model Cartographic Electron Beam Recorder (EBR) System installed at the Hydrographic/Topographic Center in Washington, D.C. is a high speed, high resolution, recording system capable of plotting both lineal and raster data developed for the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) to produce color separation film masters for maps, charts and high resolution satellite and aerial imagery from digital cartographic and image data on magnetic tape. The color separations are used to prepare press-ready printing plates for conventional multi-color printing presses for the printing of color charts and maps or to produce color composites of satellite imagery.
