Terrain Following Radar Course

Edwards AFB, CA

The course is charted with a Global Positioning System precise survey used to develop the Digital Terrain Elevation Data base with survey points used to develop a 10 foot grid +/- 1 foot over the 1- by 26-mile course point to point accuracy. Overflight data are digitized and profiles are provided for postflight analysis. Also associated with the TFR route is a low altitude supersonic corridor for high-speed TF/TA system evaluation and verification. The TFR routes can support simultaneous users.
