The command bars move up for a climb or down for descent, and roll left or right to provide lateral guidance. They display the computed angle of bank for standard-rate turns to enable the pilot to reach and fly a selected heading or track. The bars also show pitch commands that allow the pilot to capture and fly an ILS [instrument landing system] glide slope, a preselected pitch attitude, or maintain a selected barometric altitude. 2, record 1, English, - pitch%20command

Un tachéomètre électronique est l’équivalent d’un théodolite où les mesures sont effectuées électroniquement, affichées sur un écran à cristaux liquides et sauvegardées dans une mémoire interne. Le tachéomètre mesure l’angle horizontal de la lunette sur le plateau par rapport à une ligne de référence et l’angle vertical de la lunette par rapport au plan horizontal. Il mesure aussi, et c’est sa principale qualité, la distance entre un prisme de réflexion et l’axe verticale de la lunette au moyen d’un rayon laser en mesurant le temps de parcours du rayon. En utilisant la trigonométrie, le tachéomètre peut convertir ces données en coordonnées cartésiennes (X, Y, Z) ou en coordonnées cylindriques (angle, distance, élévation). 4, record 6, French, - tach%C3%A9om%C3%A8tre%20%C3%A9lectronique

[...] comme le théodolite qui l’a précédé, le tachéomètre permet de mesurer les angles horizontaux (ou azimutaux) et verticaux. La détermination planimétrique d’un point s’effectue par rayonnement, et par nivellement indirect pour les mesures indirectes. Mais à la différence du premier, il est aussi capable d’évaluer les distances. Les modèles qui peuvent en outre enregistrer en temps réel les grandeurs mesurées (cas de la plupart des appareils aujourd’hui) sont appelés « station totale ». Enfin, certains appareils intègrent même désormais un récepteur GPS, qui détermine lui-même sa position et occasionne donc un gain d’efficacité supplémentaire. 5, record 6, French, - tach%C3%A9om%C3%A8tre%20%C3%A9lectronique

When the angle of ice steepens, and more security than the cross-body technique(piolet ramasse) provides is desirable, the axe is planted in the anchor position(piolet ancre)... : with the outside hand just above the spike, the axe is swung so that the pick is anchored in the ice in front and above the climber's head with the shaft parallel to the slope. The inside hand reaches up and grasps the axe head in the self-arrest position. By pulling down on the anchored axe, the climber steps up to a new in-balance position. A gentle and constant outward pull must be kept on the shaft to set the teeth and keep the axe locked into the ice. The axe is removed by pushing the shaft toward the ice and lifting the pick up and out of the ice. 1, record 12, English, - piolet%20ancre

Footwork changes from the duck walk (en canard) to the same flat-foot technique which was used to ascend diagonally.

Record number: 18, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The incidence angle is commonly used to describe the angular relationship between the radar beam and the ground, surface layer or a target. A change of the radar illumination angle often affects the radar backscattering behaviour of a surface or target. The incidence angle changes across the radar image swath; it increases from near range to far range. In the case of satellite radar imagery, the change of incidence angle for flat terrain across the imaging swath tends to be rather small, usually on the order of several degrees. In the case of an inclined surface(slope), the local incidence angle is defined as the angle between the incident radar beam and a line that is normal to that surface. The local incidence angle determining, in part, the brightness, or image tone, for each picture element(pixel) and slope facet, is a key element in the prominent rendition of terrain features in radar imagery. 3, record 18, English, - incidence%20angle

The topographic effect is indicated on Landsat images of rugged terrain by the visual impression of relief. It is caused by the variation in spectral radiance due to surface slope and aspect variations. The difference in radiance between a horizontal and sloping surface of the same cover type provides a measure of the topographic effect (Holben and Justice 1981). Holben and Justice (1979) also measured it and showed that the effect is most extreme in areas of rugged terrain and especially for slopes in the principal plane of the sun and at low solar elevations. 3, record 21, English, - topographic%20effect

The cross-staff - This is a long-established instrument but is less precise than the optical square ... it consists of a brass box, octagonal in shape, about 75 mm deep and 60 mm broad. Down the centre of each face is cut a slot which contains a fine wire strained vertically. The staff can be fitted on the end of a ranging pole and be erected vertically. More properly, it should be attached to a tripod so that it can be placed exactly over a point on the ground by using a plumb-bob from the head of the tripod. 3, record 34, English, - cross%2Dstaff
