Satellite Remote Sensing for the 2002 Winter Olympic Games (continued)

Figure 3—Olympic venue overview
map produced from satellite imagery.

For planning and operational use, the RSAC staff produced large 36-by-33-inch images depicting the Snowbasin venue overview (figure 3) and detail (figure 4) of the base facilities. In addition, the center staff also produced small 8-1/2-by-11-inch copies of the overview imagery for each officer to carry in the field and to be positioned in portable remote post stations. Further enhancements to the images included grid squares with letters and numbers along the edges so security personnel could relay position and traffic reports keyed to locations on the imagery.
