RESULTS OF USE OF THE TELLUROMETER IN CONTROL SURVEYS FOR MAPPING BY PHOTOGRAMMETRIC METHODS FOR HIGHWAY SURVEY PURPOSES OVER A WIDE RANGE OF TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY, OVER A VARIETY OF TOPOGRAPHY WITH VARIOUS TYPES AND INTENSITIES OF GROUND COVER, AND AWAY FROM AND NEAR TRAFFIC, ARE REPORTED. SPECIAL TESTS AND REMEASUREMENTS MADE TO DETERMINE THE EFFECTIVENESS OF THE EQUIPMENT, WHILE THE CONTROL SURVEYS WORK WAS ACCOMPLISHED, ARE ALSO REPORTED. SLIGHT MODIFICATIONS IN OPERATING TECHNIQUES WERE ADOPTED TO ADMIT OF MORE EFFICIENT USE OF THE EQUIPMENT UNDER SPECIFIC CONDITIONS. INCLUDED ARE A REPORT ON MAINTENANCE REQUIRED DURING EVALUATION, THE TRAINING GIVEN PERSONNEL, MINOR MODIFICATIONS MADE IN THE EQUIPMENT, AND A PROGRAM FOR ELECTRONIC COMPUTATION OF SLOPE DISTANCES FROM TELLUROMETER DATA. /AUTHOR/
