The Design and Operational Philosophy of the Ballistic Camera Systems at the Atlantic Missile Range
Ballistic cameras have been designed and their use planned at the Atlantic Missile Range to provide the basis for a new science, photogrammetric triangulation. Photogrammetric triangulation represents the only means of providing the accuracy needed to evaluate and calibrate sophisticated electronic guidance tracking systems required for the space and missile programs. The overall system is recognized throughout the missile industry as the “Range Standard.”
