眼前的李丽，面目清秀，架一副镶蓝边的近视眼镜，显得温文尔雅。这是空军某测绘大队高级工程师李丽给笔者留下的第一印象。

    翻阅李丽的资料，让人很难相信，如此儒雅温和的女性，竟然有着成功男士必备的能力、眼光、思路，干出了在军内外航空图史上一件件影响深远的大事。

    2008年，中国地图学与GIS专业委员会这样描述李丽：21世纪我国航空图生产的领军人物。

2008年12月26日，海军第一批护航编队开赴亚丁湾索里马地区护航。此海域，我军当时还没有航空图保障。带着巨大压力，第一批护航飞行员，在没有航空图保障情况下执行任务，好比人没眼睛摸着走路，用飞行员的话说：“每次飞出去不知能否再飞回来。”

    “这个任务要能顺利完成，首先要选好人。把李丽叫来，就有了80％的把握！”总部测绘局领导焦急地说。

    2009年2月4日，李丽正在石家庄老家休假。因长期超负荷工作，体质虚弱，她正躺在床上打点滴。

    忽然，她的手机响个不停。半睡着的李丽，揉揉双眼，伸手拿起手机。

    “李高工，总部有紧急任务，通知你马上赶到北京。”

    “好的，我马上去。”

    放下电话，拔掉没打完的点滴，跟80多岁的父母亲打了个招呼，拿上换洗衣服，出门，打车，直奔火车站。

    坐在列车上的李丽，心绪杂乱、浑身沉沉的。一场“浴血奋战”在等着她。

    总参首长下达任务，要求李丽担任技术攻关组组长，赶在第二批护航舰队出发前完成航空图。

    已是晚上11点多了，没顾上吃饭的李丽，找来世界地图，把难题一一列出，分析论证：地域新，我空军在非洲地区的航空图保障是空白；图种新，专用于保障舰载直升机的航空图还从未制作过；技术难，各种数据没有，好比巧妇难为无米之炊；设计难，表示哪些内容以及怎样表示都未曾涉猎；作业难，多源数据融合和跨梯度制图综合，在世界制图领域都是难题。

    更让李丽感到棘手的是，此时离第二批护航舰队出发只有30多天了！

    面对这么多难题，李丽没有半点退缩。她立即组织空军测绘大队和总参某测绘大队精兵强将，成立突击队。

    任务要快速完成，必须走捷径。亚丁湾地区，我军没航空图，国家民航总局应该有？李丽一个人在办公室反复琢磨。

    第二天，李丽拿着介绍信，直奔民航总局。

    “老大姐来了，还要什么介绍信！”同行说。

    李丽在民航总局好办事，是因她水平高、名气大。前两年，民航总局曾想高薪挖她过去，但军人家庭出身、深爱军队和航图事业的她，不愿去。

    资料很快拿到手。她一看，德国图，英文标注，读不太懂。

    李丽再次来到民航总局请教专家。用一天时间把德国图搞懂。又用一天时间，教会助手。

    亚丁湾地区航线异常复杂，如没表示出准确数据，极易同国际民航飞机相撞，那将引发严重的国际事件。

    如何把英国、德国、法国的资料，整合嫁接到我国的航空图上，这个难题无人尝试过。对于我军来说，亚丁湾地区军事航空图也是空白。李丽很清楚，此任务的大方向要搞准。若方向错了，后面所做的工作，等于白干。

    李丽在航图领域打拼40年，要说经验足够丰富，可极短时间内，把该空域的事物，用科学分级分类方法，通过制图综合，用在我国的地图上，历史上无先例，真要“摸着石头过河”了。

    李丽没有畏惧。她思路清晰，指挥果断。方向和方案定下。先用传统手工编绘，后扫描，再进行数字化跟踪，编辑，成图，印刷，出版。

    让李丽至今还头疼的是，要把德、英、法三个国家的地名统一，难度极大。李丽跑到新华书店，买回世界地图集，整理资料，进行比对，对各种名称核对了上百次，最后用中英文双语标出。

    “任何一个标志不能有丝毫差错。比如飞机飞行超障高度是3000英尺，若漏一个零，变成300英尺，飞机肯定会相撞。”李丽认真严谨的作风，直接影响着助手。

    昼夜加班，连续作战。苦战26天，完成了300多天才能完成的《亚丁湾地区舰载直升机专用航空图》重大任务，填补了我国航空图的历史空白。

    2009年3月7日，总参测绘局副局长薛贵江，带着李丽一行，来到海军航空兵部交接航空图。李丽向即将赴亚丁湾执行任务的第二批飞行员详细讲解航空图的使用说明，受到飞行员们的一致称赞。

    2009年7月，在北京海军航空兵部调研会上，领航测绘处杨处长说：“这个图制作得非常好，真要给你请功！要是没有航空图，没有了方向和目标，我们还不知能不能顺利返航，太感谢您了！”

In front of Li Li, handsome face, an inlaid blue-edge frame glasses seem gentle. This is the Air Force, a mapping unit senior engineer Li Li to the first impression I left.

     Lee Lai-read information, make it difficult to believe that this refined moderate women, even with a successful man must have the ability, vision, ideas, dried out in both military and civilian aviation and highly influential figure in the history of an event.

     In 2008, China cartography and GIS Professional Committee described Li Li: The 21st century map of China's aviation manufacturing leader.

December 26, 2008, the Navy convoy formation of the first to move into the Gulf of Aden and Malaysia escort sori. This area is, our army was not to protect aviation map. With tremendous pressure, the first batch of escort pilot, in the absence of air under the plan guarantees the implementation of tasks, like people are not feeling the eyes and walk, with the pilot as saying: "Every time I do not know whether to fly again fly back."

     "This task must be successfully completed, we must first choose the right people. To Lee Lai-called, there is 80% certainty!" Headquarters Surveying and Mapping Bureau and said anxiously.

     February 4, 2009, Li Li, Shijiazhuang is home on leave. Due to the long-term overload of work, physical weakness, she was lying in bed, an intravenous drip.

     Suddenly, her cell phone ringing off the hook. Half-asleep Li Li, rubbed its eyes, reached for pick up the phone.

     "Li Senior Engineer, Headquarters, there is an urgent task, to inform you immediately rushed to Beijing."

     "Okay, I'll go."

     Off the phone, pulled out did not end a bit by bit, with more than 80-year-old's parents said hello, take on the changing clothes, going out, playing cars, went straight to the railway station.

     Sitting on the train on the Li Li, moods messy, full of gray. A "bloody battle" in waiting for her.

     Head of the General Staff issued a mandate requiring Li Li for technical research team leader, in time for the second convoy to complete prior to departure aviation map.

     Is more than 23:00, I was unable to eat on the Gu Li Li, and got a world map, the problems are listed out, analysis and appraisal: a new area, I have the Air Force in the African region of aviation security is a blank map; Figure kinds of new, dedicated on the protection of ship-borne helicopters, aviation map has never been produced; technical difficulties, a variety of data is not, like to make bricks without straw; the design is difficult to express what and how that all has not been studied under; job difficult, multi-source data fusion and inter - gradient cartographic generalization, the field of cartography in the world are difficult questions.

     Gengrang Li Li was difficult is that, this time starting from the second convoy only 30 days left!

     To face so many difficulties, Li Li is not the slightest flinch. She immediately organized the Air Force and the General Staff of a mapping unit mapping crack unit set up commando.

     To quickly complete the task, we must take a shortcut. Gulf of Aden region, our army did not air map, the State Civil Aviation Administration should have? Li Li a person in the office repeatedly pondering.

     The next day, Li Li holding a letter of introduction, went straight to the CAAC.

     "Lao Dajie come, but also what the letter of introduction!" Peer said.

     Li Li in the Civil Aviation Administration of good things, it is because she was a high level of fame big. Two years ago, the Civil Aviation Administration wanted to dig her past salary, but a military family background, love the military and aeronautical charts the cause of her reluctance to go.

     Information will soon get the hand. She saw the German map, marked in English, reading and do not understand.

     Li Li once again came to the Civil Aviation Administration Ask the Expert. One day was time to get to know the German plan. Then one day, the church assistant.

     Gulf of Aden regional airline is extremely complex, such as expressed no accurate data, easily with the international civil aircraft collided, it will lead to a serious international incident.

     How the United Kingdom, Germany, France, information, integration of graft into China's aviation map, this problem no one tried. For the military, the Gulf of Aden area military aviation map is blank. Li Li is very clear that the general direction of this task engage in quasi-. If the wrong direction, followed by the work done is equal to white dry.

     Li Li worked hard in the field of aeronautical charts for 40 years, rich enough to say that the experience can be a very short time, put things in the airspace, using the scientific method of hierarchical classification, through the cartographic generalization, used in our map, there are no precedents in history you really want to "cross the river by feeling the stones" of.

     Li Li is not afraid. Her clear thinking, command and decisive. Set the direction and programs. First with the traditional manual compilation, after scanning, and then digitized tracking, editing, mapping, printing, publishing.

     Let Li Li headache still is, should Germany, Britain, France, three countries, names unity extremely difficult. Li Li went to bookstores to buy back the world atlas, collate information, and compare on a variety of names checked a hundred times, the last marked in English and Chinese bilingual.

     "Any one sign can not have the slightest mistake. Such as aircraft flying ultra-barrier height is 3,000 feet, if a zero-leakage into 300 feet, the aircraft will certainly be a collision." Lee Lai-style of most serious direct impact on the assistant.

     Day and night, overtime, continuous fighting. Had worked hard to 26 days, to complete more than 300 days to complete the "Gulf of Aden region dedicated shipborne helicopter aviation map" a major task to fill the gaps in the history of China's aviation map.

     March 7, 2009, the General Staff, Deputy Surveyor General XUE Gui River, with Li Li and his entourage arrived at the transfer of the Naval Aviation Department Aviation Map. Li Li went to the Gulf of Aden to the forthcoming implementation of the mandate elaborate on the second batch of pilot aeronautical chart instructions by the pilots were unanimous praise.

     July 2009 in Beijing, the Ministry of research at the naval air force, pilot the Director of Survey and Mapping Office, Young said: "The map produced very well, I really give you asked gong! If there is no air map, no direction and goals, we also I do not know can successfully return, Thank you very much! "
