A Data Reduction Package for US Army Topographic Computers: Hand-Held Programmable Calculators.

Abstract

This study was done to provide the US Army with the basis for a standardized program package for use with hand-held, programmable calculators. The programs are written and published in a format which is immediately useable with the Texas Instruments Programmable 59 Calculator, but which can easily be adapted for use with other programmable calculators. Other Department of Defense agencies may also find them valuable in training and operational efforts. The study includes a general overview of the history of the Topographical Engineers. (Author)
