The survey was produced using the Long Michelson Interferometer at the Old Rifle Range in Cambridge in 1950. This device operated primarily at a wavelength of 3.7 metres, and was operated using Ryle's phase switching technique. F. Graham Smith also used the interferometer to measure the electron density in the ionosphere.
