The Federal Aviation Administration(FAA) has approved the use of Allied Signal' s enhanced ground proximity warning system(EGPWS) on all American Airlines Boeing 757 aircraft.... The new EGPWS provides a detailed map of the terrain in the vicinity of the aircraft. Using an existing navigation system, such as the Global Positioning System(GPS), the aircraft's position is correlated with a database-driven terrain map which provides the pilot with real time awareness of the aircraft's position. The moving map, which is displayed on a cockpit screen, will aid the pilot in maintaining proper altitude and terrain clearance. 3, record 3, English, - enhanced%20ground%20proximity%20warning%20system

An adhesive, usually a coating of wax is applied to the emulsion side of a wrong reading image positive stripping film. A sharp but delicate knife is used to cut around the type image and using a pair of tweezers, the thin emulsion layer is peeled off and positioned on a clear map overlay. Finally, by using a burnishing tool, the thin emulsion layer containing the type image and coated with wax, is rubbed down thereby ensuring better adhesion.

ELS involves the delineation and description of units of land based on the integration of information on geomorphology, soils, vegetation, climate, water and fauna. Land units may be interpreted at any one of six hierarchical levels of generalization and presented in map form using scales ranging from 1 : 1, 000, 000 down to 1 : 2, 500. 2, record 13, English, - ecological%20land%20survey

The Gamma filter performs gamma map filtering. Gamma filtering is primarily used on radar data to remove high frequency noise(speckle) while preserving high frequency features(edges). The Gamma Map filter was first proposed by Kuan.... Lopes modified the Kuan Map filter by assuming a gamma distributed scene and setting up two thresholds. The gamma filter size ranges from 1 to 11. Different filter sizes will greatly affect the quality of processed images. If the filter is too small, the noise filtering algorithm is not effective. If the filter is too large, subtle details of the image will be lost in the filtering process. A 7x7 filter usually gives the best results.... The GAMMA filter performs spatial filtering on each individual pixel in an image using the grey level values in a square window surrounding each pixel. The dimensions of the filter must be odd, and can be from 3x3 to 11x11 pixels. 2, record 17, English, - gamma%20filter

Choropleth maps are divided into parts corresponding to the physical extents of the enumeration areas, here wards, and these parts are shaded according to the value of a variable for that area. One of the most common types of measurement to map using the choropleth technique is the density value. This gives an average value of the variable per unit area for each enumeration area. The following show the population density for Leicestershire using the ward data and boundaries. 2, record 27, English, - choropleth

The Northrop Grumman MALD is a slender UAV with pop-out wings, and is powered by a 10. 2 centimeter(4 inch) diameter Sundstrand TJ-50 turbojet.... MALD's autopilot will include a commercial GPS receiver. The decoy will incorporate a programmable active radar enhancement payload designed by Northrop Grumman that can be programmed to allow it to impersonate different aircraft, from stealth fighter to B-52s.... Three MALDs can be carried on a stores pylon, compared with one ITALD or comparable decoy drone. The MALDs can be programmed to fly formations simulating those of combat aircraft, such as the classic lead and wingman arrangement. The course of a MALD can be programmed by displaying a digital map on a computer and then using a mouse to click on the appropriate map "waypoints", and the "wingman" can then be programmed to follow the same course with an offset. The MALD's computer will be able to follow a large number of waypoints over a 460 kilometer(286 mile) course. It will also be sophisticated enough to simulate maneuvers typical of attack aircraft. 2, record 29, English, - MALD

Volunteers, comprising mostly of secondary school students and adult members of community groups, commit two to three days each year for up to three years to re-survey the same stretch of the coastline. They do not require a scientific background, however each person is taught to map and survey using scientifically-defensible methods by a recognized Shorekeeper leader who has successfully graduated from the intensive, hands-on leadership and biological training course". 1, record 31, English, - Shorekeepers%20Leadership%20Training%20Course

A computer program, which runs on MS-DOS personal computers, is described that assists in the design of synthetic genes coding for proteins. The goal of the program is the design of a gene which(i) contains as many unique restriction sites as possible and(ii) uses a specific codon usage. The gene designed according to the criteria above is(i) suitable for ’modular mutagenesis’ experiments and(ii) optimized for expression. The program ’reverse-translates’ protein sequences into degenerated DNA sequences, generates a map of potential restriction sites and locates sequence positions where unique restriction sites can be accommodated. The nucleic acid sequence is then ’refined’ according to a specific codon usage to remove any degeneration. Unique restriction sites, if potentially present, can be ’forced’ into the degenerated nucleic acid sequence by using ’priority codes’ assigned to different restriction sequences. 1, record 40, English, - synthetic%20gene

Sport [...] proche de la course à pied d'endurance [où] chaque concurrent, muni d'une carte topographique, doit se rendre, dans les meilleurs délais et selon un ordre qu'il doit établir lui-même, en des points précis qui constituent les postes de contrôle, distants parfois de plusieurs kilomètres les uns des autres. L'épreuve dure au total une heure ou deux heures. En général, le parcours représente une distance de 10 à 15 km. Comme son nom l'indique, ce sport fait appel à des qualités d'orientation, en plus des qualités requises pour la course à pied d'endurance. Épreuve contre la montre, sur un parcours balisé à découvrir, la course d'orientation développe les facultés de débrouillardise et d'observation. 1, record 41, French, - course%20d%27orientation
