APPENDIX G
MAPPING, CHARTING, & GEODESY
AFTER ACTION REPORT
General. Mapping, Charting, and Geodesy After Action Reports (MC&G AARs) are used by
the Survey Information Center to identify areas of operation used by Marine Air-Ground Task
Forces.
a. The MC&G AAR will provide information about the area of operation, map products
required, and availability of survey control.
b. The MC&G AAR will provide artillery units with information vital to the planning process
for future operations.
Mapping, Charting, & Geodesy After Action Report Outline. The outline in this appendix
can be used to record all pertinent information about the area of operation.

Survey Section, Camp Hansen, Okinawa. DSN 645-3393
18. Trig List Information, (If Data was Provided Prior to Deployment) List: Problems, Lack of Data, Lost or
Destroyed Control Points, Accessibility of Control, Any Information Concerning Geodetic Control.
The trig list obtained from 12th Marines Survey needs to be up dated. Many new survey control points were found
in the training area, but we did not have data on them, See attached recovery notes.
19. Survey Control Recovery/Survey Information: (Copies of: Recovery Notes, New Survey Control Point
Information, Trig Lists) See Attachment for OP, GP, DEC STA Data.
20. Grid Convergence and/or Datum Transformation, (If Needed, What Method was Used?): Not required.
21. General Comments (Artillery Oriented or Other): Ensure local secure is enforced to prevent thievery. Ensure
vehicles have tire chains for operations on icy roads.
