DIRECT QBBEB- VATION and INDIRECT OBSER VATION. DIRECT observation la that whl^ Is made by eye from an aircraft, and indirect obeer- vation U aerial (diotography. Ae rial photography can be seen to have several advantage over di rect cdiservatlon. First it permits time for study, study of minute detail which is not poesible by direct observation. Secondly. 11 permits eomparison of photograi^ made from day to day or week to week that would disclose any change In terrain or position. Thirdly, It gives a permanent record to which reference can be made at any time. Tbe third VATXCNi or observation tnm the force is HORXZCtffTAL OB8ER- grrund which Is In Itself more generaUy cosnprebenslve and self- explanatory. All of these types of observation or reconnaissance wlU be governed by certain character istics of objects and backgrounds by which the objects and ba^- grounds are Identified. In other words, the charac- , terlstics that show why we ye tfeli«s wtth the naked eye or they ahow up on a ^diotogiaphie pMte. Tbsse eharacte^ttm a r e . le^ tone, teztore, and color. AU of v%kb make np a grogsl P**- tern. Tbe form can be defined as line that defines a man, an air- E lane, building, or clump of trees. a this respect the middle section or torso of a man Is Uttle different when seen at a distance from that of a tree trunk, sandbag or some similar shape. However, the addition of tbe bead and shoulders immediately creates a character istic outline. Tbe characteristic outline of a plane Is a T shape. It Is seen Sji such from the air. Pilots and bombaitilers are trained to look for this shape. PractlcaUy any T, shape proper else on the ground win at first glance register on their miniiw as an aircraft. There are general differences hi the char acteristic outline and placement of man-made objects and natural ob jects. Natural objects Invariably are irregular and uncontroUed In shape. Man-made objects on the ottrer hand, tend toward geometric shapes and forms, controlled curves and regularity of arrangr- ment. Tbe tone or relative ll^tncaa or darkness of objects as seen oL rectiy or as they register on a photographic plate.

Hence, seen Jrom the air, a smoothly roUed roadway wlU appear much lighter than a rough er surrounding area of tbe same material* color, and local tone. For the same reason, a worn path way through grass wUl appear light in. comparison to the sur- roundln^Mandlng grass. A field of standing: gnln ^tb Its deep tex ture will appear Bsucb darker than a newly XMwn field of the same grain. from the air, trees appear extremely dark though thelataadows east by objects raised actual color of their 'Tollage may above tbe ground appear as the be tbe 'Same as the surrounding'darkest parts of tbe pattern.
