This guide is an instructional manual for the use by the U.S. Army Terrain Analyst when preparing the following factor overlays: slope, landform, and surface roughness. These overlays are constructed form the analysis of the combined data extracted from literature, topographic maps, and aerial/LANDSAT imagery. A catalog section includes the descriptions of photo pattern, topographic map, and surface roughness data elements for thirty-seven typical topographic/geologic forms. Additional topics include: Remote sensing, Military geographic information, Geology/Soils, Factor Mapping, Aerial Photography, and Photointerpretation.
