Third Crewmember
A third crewmember is needed to act as a log keeper and assist the crew
in other imaging-related tasks. Any qualified Mission Pilot, Observer or
Scanner can be trained to perform these duties.
Operating the Satellite Digital Imaging System (SDIS) is covered in a
separate course and associated Task Guides. However, the skills and
knowledge needed to take the photos that are transmitted by SDIS are
covered in this text.
The ARCHER system is operated by a small number of specially
trained personnel, and is controlled by National HQ. Therefore it is not
covered in this text. If you are interested in this system, refer to CAP’s
ARCHER TRAC training courses and the Hyperspectral Imaging
Operations Manual.
Ownership of Photos
If you are taking photos or video on a training mission (i.e., not for
delivery to a specific customer), the pictures are the property of CAP. If
you want to post them or use them outside the training mission, please
contact your IC and get approval for the specific use of the photos
If you are taking photos or video for a customer (anyone other than
CAP) the images are the property of the customer. They may not be used
for any reason (including training) without the expressed written consent of
the customer. Contact your IC to get permission for the specific use, and
don’t be surprised that the customer may not want you to disseminate or
use the photos or video for other purposes.
