The primary horizontal control network furnished the basic controls

Reproduced from the holdings of the National Archives
Pacific Southwest Region

from which the relations of test structures were determined.

The scheme

was expanded to inolude the photo stations at sites M, N, P and Q; C, E and

V Zero points, and the islands of Bogon and Rigili.

The islands of Murin

and Aeraanbiru were looated from controls established in the local Zero areas,
General Features
The specifioations and criteria for second order triangulation were

followed in expanding the scheme.

While the strength of figure was weak in

some cases, additional observations were taken which offset the weakness.
All observations were made at night, and standard procedure was attempted
throughout.

Weather conditions and interference from construction and scien-

tific work in the tower areas affected the survey, but the results are
considered consistent with requirements.
A quadrilateral was developed including station Bokon, thereby increasing
the strength of this station over the single triangle by which it was previously
located.

The adjusted values vary slightly from those recorded from the

previous survey.
Station Islet was also strengthened by inclusion in a quadrilateral with
no change in the values previously recorded.
The location of station Rigili is to third order acouracy, which conforms
with instructions regarding location of this station.
Field Computations
Computations of the expanded soheme were made at the jobsite.

While

adjustments to balance out observing errors were not made, the results were
within solentific requirements.
