Experiences in these are used to advocate a more differentiated Judgement of interpolation methods. Some are compared with each other and an attempt is made to show that it is useful to use a number of different interpolation methods for different photogran~netric tasks. Auth. i338 RADIOR,VL BOPP, D Computer program . Evaluation of digital terrain models. In Germsn.7F. B ILDMESS. LUFTB ILD.PHOTOGRAM. N3,1975, P108-114. An application program called "Evaluation of digital terrain models" is described. This program provides the solution to the following problems: dynamic selection of terrain points in areas covered by varying numbers of terrain points; recognition of critical arrangements of terrain points and appropriate selection of additional terrain points for stabilization of calculation, and processing terrain polnts~which define discontinuities of terrain. 1339 FUCHS, VH The digital terrain model in the Rhenish Browncoal district. In Gerrmszl. 6F,7R. BILDMESS. LUF2B ILD. FHOTOGRAM. N3,1975, P96-103. The use of the digital terrain model, consisting of an elevation and a situation model, for describing the area and the numerous demarcation areas of the coal sesms and stone layers in the Rhenish Browncoal district of Germany is described. The efficiency of both digital models is treated briefly with reference to an open cast mine.
Geophysical techniques 1340 SHARMA, PV UNIV. COPEITHAG~, DK Geophysical methods i n geology. Textbook.Methods in geophysics.Volume 12. ELSEVIER SCI.PUBL. CO .1975,420P. This volume provides the student with a concise accountof the different geophysical methods and their applications to a wide range of problems, including those related to global tectonics. The principal methods of geophysics, including gravimetry, magnetometry, earthquake and explosion seismolo~'j geoelectric soundlng,geothertalcs and geochronology are covered. Ms4or stress is laid on principles and appllca£ions of methods rather than on instrumental techniques.
Presentation and interpretation of data 1341 DAV IS, JC UN IV .KANSAS, USA MCCULIAGH, MJ UNIV .NOTr INGHAM, GB Display and analysis of spatial data.Textbook. JOHN WILEY AND SONS LTD.GB,1975,382P. This volume brings together work from geography,planning, geology, computer science and other sciences generally, on the subject of mpplng spatial variables. The ma~or focus of the volume is on the ca]culatlon of maps by digi tal computers, but the contributions collected here cover three main problem areas : The statistical and methodological problems of data definition sad collection, the practical problems of constructing maps and spatial displays, and the problems of analysis and interpretation arising from displays of spatial data. The volume arose from the NATO Advanced Study Institute held in Nottingham in 1973. 1342 CLAUSS, KA NAT. INST .ROAD RES.PRETORIA, ZA VAIL, JW NAT.

INST. C IV. ENGRS, 9P. In 1971 a National Data Bank for Roads was established as an experimental service. The objective was to bank materials data and construction experience for re-use. The service was not used to the extent expected and the reasons for the failure of an apparently useful idea were investigated. It was found that the originally proposed principle of geomarphologlcal classification for the storage of information was too complicated and, with regard to road construction materials, incorrect. Another system of classification, based on parent rock, climate, relief and land form was developed. It was established, during an experimental period of some eighteen months, that this second approach is unambiguous and meets the requirements of users, who are highway engineers. For these reasons it has been accepted by road authorities and is being applied by the National Data Bank for roads with success. Auth.
