FILM TYPES

Domain	Definition
Geological	Photographic products for use in image interpretation are commonly generated from the following film types: * Black-and-White Panchromatic (B&W): This film primarily consists of a black-and-white negative material with a sensitivity range comparable to that of the human eye. It has good contrast and resolution with low graininess and a wide exposure range. * Black-and-White Infrared (BIR): With some exceptions, this film is sensitive to the spectral region encompassing 0.4 micrometers to 0.9 micrometers. It is sometimes referred to as near-infrared film because it utilizes only a narrow portion of the total infrared spectrum (0.7 micrometers to 0.9 micrometers). * Conventional Color: This film contains three emulsion layers that are sensitive to blue, green, and red (the three primary colors of the visible spectrum). This film replicates colors as seen by the human eye and is commonly referred to as normal or natural color. Color film is a valuable image interpretation tool because the human eye can discern a greater variety of color tones than gray tones.* Color Infrared (CIR): This film, originally referred to as camouflage-detection film because of its warfare applications, differs from conventional color film because its emulsion layers are sensitive to green, red, and near-infrared radiation (0.5 micrometers to 0.9 micrometers). Used with a yellow filter to absorb the blue light, this film provides sharp images and penetrates haze at high altitudes. Color-infrared film also is referred to as false-color film. (references)
