The Importance of Shoran Surveying
During World War II many electronic devices were developed which were used subsequently in various fields of endeavor. One such device was shoran, a transceiver-transponder system by which radio-wave travel time is measured. Shoran has since been developed further and is a surveying instrument by which inaccessible terrain can be surveyed by combining shoran with photogrammetry with an accuracy comparable to third-order control. Horizontal control by the use of shoran is quite accurate, but vertical control leaves much to be desired; continued work in this direction is needed.
