TERPROM
TERPROM is a military navigation system used on aircraft and missiles which uses stored digital elevation data combined with navigation system and radar altimeter inputs to compute the location of the aircraft or missile above the surface of the earth. It is also used as a warning system to prevent aircraft from flying too close to the ground.
