Figure 5.14 (a) is a close-up of the irrage near the junction of the<br />

trvo main runways shotvn in Figure 5.11. The irnage is magnifiecl about four.<br />

times compaled rvith ihe irnage shown in Figule 5.11. The r.ectalgle in Figule<br />

5.14 (a) r'eplesents the selectecl subarea, in which two point scattelels are<br />

ce.terecl. The co'rplex clata corresponding to this area weLe then converted<br />
