The Position and Azimuth Determining System is intended for use in the conduct of field artillery surveys to determine the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) coordinates and elevations of locations critical in the fire control function, such as battery centers, launcher positions, orientating stations, target acquisition devices, and survey control points. The system will determine the azimuth of the orienting lines for weapons and target acquisition systems. The system will operate in any geographic area except within 15° latitude of the poles.
