EICS identifies the consequences of changes in activities occurring in a
region and guides the discussion of these consequences in an environmental
assessment and impact statement.  Using data supplied by the planner, EICS
builds a "need to consider" matrix of likely environmental problems
associated with the proposed activity.  The matrix highlights those areas
which require special attention.  Information provided by EICS includes: 
identification of potential environmental impacts; ramification remarks,
which elaborate on each of the impacts of an activity or attribute; and
mitigation statements, which provide techniques for minimization,
abatement, or avoidance of significant environmental areas such as ecology,
health science, air quality, and energy and resource conservation; and 806
basic human activities grouped into nine broad areas such as construction,
training and research, development testing and evaluation.  The data base
does not contain records but does contain 776 attributes and 800 activities
that can be combined in a matrix to provide more than 500,000 potential
impacts.  Direct access via a remote terminal is available to ETIS
subscribers for $200.00 a year.  Anyone can become an ETIS subscriber and
thereby also obtain direct access to three other data bases maintained by
ETIS.  ETIS will conduct searches for non-subscribers.  A cost recovery
fee, based on $90.00 per hour computer time and $25.00 per hour staff time

navigators; 153 non-flyers), 4 Warrant Officers and 683 Enlisted men were
measured.  In the second half, 2632 men (2203 white, 412 black, 17 other)
undergoing basic training and one Sergeant were measured at Lackland AFB. 
Of this Lackland group 106 men had ranks other than basic trainee.  The
contents of this tape are also described along with Volumes 1, II, IV, and
V of the AMRL Anthropometric Data Bank Library in the report The AMRL
Anthropometric Data Bank Library: Volume 1-V, AMRL-TR-77-1, October 1977. 
This contains the complete survey in the fully edited form.


Flying Personnel (AD-A056 157/1/XDD) (See NTIS above)
An anthropometric study of flying personnel was conducted in 1950 at 14 Air
Force bases in MA, MI, CO, WA, CA, TX, and LA.  The original statistical
analyses were the initial activity of the Anthropology Research Project. 
The results, reported in TR-52-321, were carried out prior to the
availability of modern computer facilities; since publication of that
report, the data have been modernized.  Millimeter figures for most
variables originally recorded but not punched were incorporated into the
data.  This tape includes data for 4000 subjects and 161 variables,
variables 1-132 are body size values, 133 is age, 134-146 are somatotype
ratings (those listed as somatotype are ratings done by Dupertuis using
Sheldons method).  A statistical comparison of the body typing methods of
Hooton and Sheldon is provided in SADC TR 56-366 (AD-097 205).  The
contents of this tape are also described along with Volumes I-III and
Volume V of the AMRL Anthropometric Data Bank Library in the report The
AMRL Anthropometric Data Bank Library: Volume 1-V, AMRL-TR-77-1, October
1977.  This contains the complete survey in the fully edited form.


682/9/XDD) (See NTIS above)
Correlation matrices based on data from USAF Anthropometric surveys of
women (1968, 127 variables), flying personnel (1950, 128 variables; 1967,
190 variables), and basic trainees (1965, 161 variables); a US Army survey
of women separatees (1946, 60 variables); the Health Examination Survey of
civilian adults (1960-1972, 18 variables); and a survey of law enforcement
officers (1974, 23 measurements) are presented for use by engineers who
need them in solving design problems and for anthropologists and
statisticians whose analyses and understanding of the interrelationships of
body size data depend significantly on these coefficients.  Sample sizes in
these surveys ranged from almost 2000 upward.  Sample means and standard
deviations are presented for all variables involved.  The contents of this
tape are also described in the report, Intercorrelations of Anthropometric
Measurements:  A Source Book for USA Data, Churchill, E., P. Kikta, and T.
Churchill, AMRL-TR-77-2 (AD-A058 616), Aerospace Medical Research
Laboratories, WPAFB OH, May 1978.  Complete data from the four USAF surveys
are described in the AMRL Anthropometric Data Bank Library, Volumes I-V,
Churchill, E., P. Kikta, and T. Churchill, AMRL-TR-77-1 (AD-A047 314),
Aerospace Medical Research Laboratories, WPAFB OH, October 1977, and on
magnetic computer tapes available from NTIS.  AD numbers for these tapes
are:  (1968) AD-A056 154/AS, (1967) AD-A056 155/AS, (1965) AD-A056 156/AS,

DTIC maintains data banks with information about planned, ongoing, and
completed DOD-related research and development activities.  The collection
is multi-disciplinary in scope and spans all fields of science and
technology, covering topics such as:  aeronautics, missile technology,
navigation, space and technology, nuclear science, biology, chemistry,
environmental science, oceanography, computer science, and human factors
engineering.  The four principle data banks are:  the Technical Reports
(TR) Program which contains bibliographic information on
classified/unclassified reports generated by federally sponsored research;
the Research and Technology Work Unit Information System (WUIS) containing
information about current research being performed; the Research and
Development Planning (R&DPP) data base, consisting of information about
proposed projects; and the Independent Research & Development (IR&D) data
bank with information contractors have supplied DOD regarding their
independent research efforts.  The DTIC collection currently contains two
million records and is updated continually.  Universities, US government
agencies and associated contractors, subcontractors, and grantees are
eligible for most DTIC services.  In addition, research and development
organization without current contracts may become eligible for service by
obtaining a military service authorization under the defense potential
contractors programs.  If you are registered user for DTIC services, you
can obtain direct online access to the DTIC system, have searches and
printouts done free of charge, and purchase DTIC documents for a minimal
fee - generally $1.50 to $3.00.  If you are not DTIC-eligible, you can
contact the National Technical Information Service (NTIS) to obtain a
limited search of DTIC's Technical Reports Program data base.  NTIS charges
for its services.

The Navy Corrected Geostrophic Winds are the results of a Navy effort to
obtain a Gulf of Mexico wind field with the proper temporal and spatial
resolution necessary to resolve the highly variable Gulf wind field.  The
report that documents the techniques used and results obtained is a NORDA
Technical Note titled Navy Corrected Geostrophic Wind Set for the Gulf of
Mexico, NORDA, NSTL Station, Mississippi, 39529.  The wind stresses were
calculated from the Navy corrected geostrophic wind data set using constant
atmospheric density and a drag coefficient equal to .0013.  The delivered
data set consists of 17 files (blocksize 2400 and record length 80) on 3
tapes.  The first file on the first tape contains an internally documented
Fortran 77 program for reading any of the other 16 files.  All other files
contain the geostrophic wind data on a 1 degree grid with each file
corresponding to one years worth of data from 1967-1982.

The stock number user directory (SNUD) file is a tailored product used
primarily by Air Force activities as a research tool to assist in locating
retail lateral support.  SNUD consists of all stock numbers (SNs), for
which participating activities have established user interest.  The type of
Stock Numbers available are National Stock Numbers (NSNs), Kit (K),
Non-cataloged (NC) or Non Designated (ND) numbers.  Activities are
identified by a Stock Record Account Number (SRAN) or an assigned user
account.


World Data Bank 1 (Wdb 1) is a digital representation of the coastlines and
boundaries of the world for use in automated mapping systems.  The first
two files consist of 100k individual coordinate points arranged
sequentially to describe each linear feature.  The third field is an index
to the linear features in Wdb 1.  This data bank can be use independently
or in conjunction with the Cam program, PB-238 358/6 (documentation) and
PB-238 357/8 (tape), which will output this data in 16 different map
projections.
