| Abstract: | The data reduction of the metric photography from the Apollo missions is progressing in an orderly fashion within the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA). The data from all three Apollo missions is ultimately to be utilized for development of a lunar control network covering approximately 20% of the lunar surface. In this paper, the status of the data reduction from the Apollo 15 mission is summarized. More specifically, the evaluation of system parameters, proposed control generation plan, and the anticipated characteristics of the network are discussed.Communication presented at the Conference on Lunar Dynamics and Observational Coordinate Systems, held January 15–17, 1973, at the Lunar Science Institute, Houston, Tex., U.S.A. |
