Abstract

Cape Canaveral Air Force Station Launch Complex 19 Theodolite Building (BR2268). This building is one of two theodolite structures that were used for alignment and tracking of the missile before and during flight at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station’s Launch Complex 19. This facility was used for the Titan ICBM testing and Gemini launch programs. Today, there are no longer any instrumentation in the building. Laser scanning, photogrammetry, and GPS survey were performed to record the structure and assess and monitor condition. See the model animation here: https://vimeo.com/173124996
