ground photos. Section on interpretation of seaside resort settlement features describes a 

 seven-category, land-use classification system for coastal development, and several stereo- 

 pairs illustrate the types of development.

Article discusses use of photos in the preparation and revision of hydrographic charts by the 

 USC&GS. Color and black and white infrared photos were first used only to supplement 

 panchromatic photos, but the unique characteristics of each type increased their usefulness. 

 Infrared film is best suited for delineating the land-water interface because water appears 

 very dark or black on the photos, and tlie sandy beach appears very hght or white. However, 

 lack of contrast in land areas on infrared film makes difficult the identification of terrain 

 features, and limits the use of the film. Color film shows underwater topography and is 

 useful in planning hydrographic surveys.

Comprehensive text discusses all aspects of photo interpretation and contains sections on 

 the use of photos to investigate erosion and deposition by waves and coastal landforms in 

 Chapter 4, pp. 201-219. One section discusses types of coasts, with several photos 

 illustrating landforms and features. List of technical articles and reports that made extensive 

 use of photos in studying coastal features and processes is included. Another section 

 illustrates the central Louisiana coast as an example of photo interpretation in coastal 

 geomorphology. Marshlands, swamps, beaches, and other features are discussed and 

 illustrated by aerial and ground photos. Appendix C to Chapter 2, pp. 93-97, is a discussion 

 by Russian scientists of factors that must be considered in taking good photos of 

 underwater objects, including recommendations for selection of camera, film type, and 

 filters for use with water bodies having various levels of transparency.
