HYDROGRAPHICMANUAL

Page 2: HYDROGRAPHIC MANUAL - THSOA · 2015. 10. 7. · Projection, is the sixth heading under the second subject in the third section of chapter 7, entitled " The Smooth Sheet." This edition

The subject matter in this Manual has been identified by a decimal numberingsystem and all referencing is by these numbers. The reader should understand thesignificance of these numbers. There are nine chapters, each of which is dividedinto not more than nine sections. Each section is subdivided into not more thannine subjects and each subject into not more than nine numbered headings. Thefirst digit of a number identifies the chapter, the second digit the section, the thirddigit the subject, and the fourth the heading. For example 7326, Verification of theProjection, is the sixth heading under the second subject in the third section of chapter7, entitled " The Smooth Sheet."

This edition of the Hydrographic Manual has been prepared under the directionof Captain Gilbert T. Rude, Chief of the Division of Coastal Surveys. Much valuableassistance and advice have been received from officers and personnel both in the fieldand Office. Several officers contributed to the actual compilation of the text, butspecial credit is due to Commander Henry B. Campbell who wrote section 91, CoastPilot, and to Lieutenant Commander John C. Mathisson and Mr. Thomas J. Hickley,associate electrical engineer, who wrote most of chapter 5, Echo Sounding, and chapter6, Radio Acoustic Ranging, and to Mr. Aaron L. Shalowitz, principal cartographicengineer, Division of Charts, for his collaboration in writing chapter 7, The SmoothSheet, and for his assistance in reviewing and editing the entire manuscript.

PREFACE

PAGE III

The Hydrographic Manual has been prepared and is issued to provide a textbookin which modern methods of hydrographic surveying and equipment are described.In it are, stated the general requirements of the United States Coast and GeodeticSurvey for the execution of hydrographic surveys. It is one of a series of manuals,covering the various survey operations of the Bureau.

This Manual describes in detail for the first time instruments and methods used inecho sounding and Radio Acoustic Ranging. Many of the methods and details con-tained herein are based on the reports of officers and employees of the Bureau, toonumerous for individual mention, who by their zeal and ingenuity in devising or develop-ing new methods and equipment have contributed largely to the progress of hydro-graphic surveying during recent years. This is particularly true of the Radio AcousticRanging method of locating the positions of soundings, which has been brought toits present state of efficiency by this Bureau through the untiring efforts of personnelinterested in attaining greater accuracy and reliability.
