ABSTRACT 

 This report describes a new method for presenting wave con- 

 ditions over a large area. Techniques for preparing both 

 synoptic and prognostic wave charts are presented, and some 

 of the problems encountered in analysis are discussed. Since 

 these wave charts can be transmitted by radio facsimile, they 

 are ideally suited for operational use. 

 In addition, a series of synoptic charts and 24-hour prognostic 

 charts as well as recommendations for further developmental 

 work are included.
