The use of a wobbling secondary mirror to suppress atmospheric noise restricts the scan velocity in mapping modes and has other disadvantages. The fastscanning observing technique allows observations with bolometer arrays from ground based telescopes without the need of a wobbling secondary mirror. Therefore mapping of large sky areas can be done in a shorter time than usual which is especially useful in surveys to search for new sources. We present here the basic principle of this method. .
