A Survey of the Application of Photography in Naval Research, Testing, and Development

J. H. Bell, W. R. Cronenwett

The Chief of Naval Photography recently conducted a survey to determine to what extent the various bureaus and offices of the Navy utilize photography to record, supplement, and document the information and findings of test, research, and development projects. This paper is a summary of that survey. Reports received indicate that motion picture photography is a primary tool in Naval research and testing procedures, and the methods and techniques by which photographic equipment and principles are adapted to the test problems are as many and as varied as the projects themselves.
