INFORMATION TO USERS The most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this manuscript from the microfilm master. UMI films the text directly from the original or copy submitted. Thus, some thesis and dissertation copies are in typewriter face, while others may be fi’om any type of computer printer. The quality of this reproduction is dependent upon the quality of the copy submitted. Broken or indistinct print, colored or poor quality illustrations and photographs, print bleedthrough, substandard margins, and improper alignment can adversely affect reproduction. In the unlikely event that the author did not send UMI a complete manuscript and there are missing pages, these will be noted. Also, if unauthorized copyright material had to be removed, a note will indicate the deletion. Oversize materials (e.g., maps, drawings, charts) are reproduced by sectioning the original, beginning at the upper left-hand corner and continuing from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. Each original is also photographed in one exposure and is included in reduced form at the back of the book. Photographs included in the original manuscript have been reproduced xerographically in this copy. Higher quality 6" x 9" black and white photographic prints are available for any photographs or illustrations appearing in this copy for an additional charge. Contact UMI directly to order.

Uotila Department of Geodetic Science and Surveying To My Parents Jack and Selma Lapine Who Gave Me The Start and My Wife and Children Maryann, Cynthia, and Meghann Without Whom, I Could Not Have Finished ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to express my slvjere appreciation to Professor Emeritus Dean C. Merchant for his understanding, guidance and constant attention provided throughout the research. Warm appreciation is extended to the other members of my advisory committee, Drs. Clyde Goad and Urho Uotila, for their teaching enthusiasm, suggestions and comments during the research. I wish to thank the Professors and Staff of the Department of Geodetic Science and Surveying who have given me an outstanding education over the past 22 years. I am grateful to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) for providing the opportunity to perform the research by assigning me to full time university training. I wish to express my appreciation for the aircraft and photogrammetric resources extended to me by Rear Admiral Wesley V. Hull and Captain Christian Andreasen of the NOAA Office of Charting and Geodetic Services. Gratitude is also expressed to the Ohio Department of Transportation, Division of Aerial Engineering for their surveying expertise and support. The technical assistance of James Lucas, Dr. Gerald Mader, David Crump, David iii Conners, Dennis Hoar, Lloyd Herd, and the NOAA pilots and photographers, is gratefully acknowledged. To my wife, Maryann, I offer sincere thanks for your loving . understanding, unshakable confidence, endless favors and patience during the most trying times of my research. To my children, Cynthia and Meghann, I thank you for giving up your friends in Maryland, your trOst and long peaceful bicycle rides. iv VITA August 16, 1947 ................
