Aerial Surveys Speed
BLM Work In Alaska
WASHINGTON, UP) — The Bu
I reau of Land Management, sur
| veyed more than one million acres
j in Alaska in the past three
months, officials announced to
| day.
The Interior Department re
ported the survey program is be
ing stepped up so BLM can act
on applications filed by the state
under the 1031-million-acre state
hood land grant.
BLM Director Edward Woozley
said the area surveyed in the last
three months is nearly 2 Vfe times
that covered in the previous 12
months.
One major survey project,
Woozley said, was a study at
Sheep Mountain on the Glenn
Highway northeast of Anchorage
to test the use of precise aerial
photographs in making public
land surveys.
This method, he said, involved
measuring distances on accurate
aerial photographs to locate
townships and section corners
without ground work. The cor
ners then are placed by helicopter
crews.
He said the study showed that
measurement errors were less
than two feet a mile in photo
graphs taken from 10,000 feet.
