ARC Digitized Raster
Graphics (ADRG)
ARC (equal Arc second Raster
Chart/map) Digitized Raster
Graphics (ADRG) are digital
raster representations of paper
graphic products. Maps/charts are
converted into digital data by
raster scanning and transforming
the map image into the ARC System
frame of reference. Data
collected from a single chart/map
series and scale will be
maintained as a worldwide
seamless data base of raster
graphic data with each pixel
having a distinct geographic
location.

Accuracy
For medium and small scale
graphics, horizontal accuracy is
the same as the base graphic. For
large scale graphics, horizontal
accuracy is the root sums square
of the source graphic accuracy
plus 2 pixels at scale. Vertical
accuracy is the same as that of
the source graphic. See product
specification for details.
Visually, the image will appear
slightly distorted near the zone
boundaries when compared to the
base graphic.
Area Coverage
ADRG has been produced from paper
maps in the following scales:
1:5,000,000 General Navigation
Chart (GNC), 1:2,000,000 Jet
Navigation Charts (JNC),
1:1,000,000 Operational
Navigation Charts (ONC),
1:500,000 Tactical Pilotage
Charts (TPC), 1:250,000 Joint
Operations Graphics (JOG),
1:100,000 and 1:50,000
Topographic Line Maps (TLM), City
Graphics, Combat charts, and
Nautical Charts. As of this
writing, 4000 ADRG CD ROM titles
representing over 14,000 scanned
paper maps have been produced.
Currently, stock numbers for
existing ADRG are listed in the
Aerospace Products Semiannual
Bulletin Digest (stock number
CATP1UBD) and Topographic
Products Semiannual Bulletin
Digest (stock number
CATP3V01UBD). In most cases, the
ADRG stock numbers directly
correspond to the sheet number of
the paper map stored as ADRG on
the CD-ROM. In the case of JOGs
(normally four are scanned onto
one CD-ROM) and TLMs (normally
six are scanned onto one CD-ROM),
paper map stock numbers can be
cross referenced to ADRG stock
numbers using listings in the
Aeronautical Products Semiannual
Bulletin Digest for JOGs and in
the Topographic Products
Semiannual Bulletin Digest for
TLMs.
The cataloging system described
above is being replaced with a
dedicated ADRG catalog.

Division (PRA).
Applications
Map displays on command and
control systems, mission planning
systems, and aircraft cockpits.
Releasability
Releasable to DoD, its
contractors and other Executive
Agencies supporting DoD
activities. Some small scale ADRG
may be released to the public.
Compressed ARC Digitized
Raster Graphics (CADRG)
Summary
CADRG is to be a
jointly-coordinated common
compression of ARC Digitized
Raster Graphics (ADRG) for use in
any application requiring rapid
display of a map image or
manipulation of the image of a
map in raster form. Compressed
ADRG (CADRG), achieves a nominal
compression of 55:1 over ADRG.
Product Specifications
DOD Mil-Spec No.
MIL-C-89038
Data Density
CADRG has a data density of 169
pixels/inch at 1:1 display scale;
it can be decompressed for 8-bit
(216 colors) or 4-bit (16 colors)
displays.
Coordinate Reference System
ARC (equal Arc second Raster
Chart/map) System (Rectangular
Projection). In the ARC system
the world is divided into 18
latitude zones to obtain equal
spacing with minimum distortion.
Horizontal Datum
World Geodetic System 1984 (WGS

source graphic.
Content
Each data frame file contains
digital information with common
header records. A frame file
contains all of the information
for a defined geographic area.
The information content of CADRG
is the same as that of the base
map. CADRG includes Global
Navigation Charts (GNC, 1:5M),
Jet Navigation Charts, (JNC,
1:2M), Operational Navigation
Charts (ONC, 1:1M), Tactical
Pilotage Charts, (TPC, 1:500k),
Joint Operations Graphics-Air
(JOG-A, 1:250k), Topographic Line
Maps (TLM, 1:50k), and from City
Graphics (variable scales from
1:5k to 1:15k).
Structure

Data: Raster Product Format (RPF)
Media: ISO 9660 CR-ROM
File Size
Frame file typical size 288,978
bytes. Actual sizes are variable.
Accuracy
Vertical accuracy for CADRG is
the same as for the source
graphic. Horizontal accuracy for
medium and small scale is the
same as for the source graphic.
Horizontal accuracy for large
scale is the root sums square of
the source graphic accuracy plus
2 pixels at scale.
Area Coverage
Coverage for CADRG will match
that of the ADRG source products.
Applications
CADRG is intended for use in a
variety of systems requiring map
backgrounds, coordinate
selection, and perspective view
generation. This includes, but is
not limited to, mission planning
systems, theater battle
management systems, and
intelligence systems. CADRG is
intended to replace Compressed
Aeronautical Chart (CAC),
Compressed Raster Graphics (CRG)
and Air Force's Common Mapping
Standard (CMS), providing a
common raster map set for DoD
displays.
Releasability
Intent is for the final product
to be releasable to DoD, its
contractors, and other Executive
Agencies supporting DoD
activities.
Controlled Image Base
(CIB)
Summary
CIB is unclassified panchromatic
(black and white) digital imagery
produced to support a variety of
mission planning and command,
control, communications, and
intelligence systems. CIB is a
compressed and National Imagery
Transmission Format Standard
(NITFS)-compliant outgrowth of
ARC Digital Raster Imagery
(ADRI). CIB will initially be
produced from SPOT commercial
imagery that has been
orthonormalized using DMA Digital
Terrain Elevation Data Level 1
(DTED1); it will eventually be
produced from stereo imagery that
has been orthorectified to remove
relief displacements and other
sources of positional error. DMA
anticipates prototyping of CIB in
early CY 94 and beginning
production later in the year.
Product Specifications
Under development in conjunction
with the first prototype. CIB
will be compliant with Raster
Product Format (RPF) and National
Imagery Transmission Format
Standard (NITFS).
Data Density
The SPOT panchromatic imagery
that must be used initially has a
10 meter ground sample distance,
which corresponds to a nominal
pixel spacing in initial CIB of
10 meters. As unclassified
imaging systems attain higher
resolution, CIB will migrate
toward a target ground sample
distance of 5 meters.
Coordinate Reference System

Area Coverage
A global requirement for landmass
and littoral zones is assumed.
Applications
Rapid overview of areas of
operations, map substitute for
emergencies and crises, metric
foundation for anchoring other
data in C4I systems or image
exploitation,
positionally-correct images for
draping in terrain visualization,
and image backgrounds for mission
planning and rehearsal.
Releasability
Release is determined on a
case-by-case basis. Intent is for
the final product to be released
to DoD, its contractors, and
other Executive Agencies
supporting DoD activities.
