Description
Summary:For three recent years the Ukrainian photogrammetrists from the Lviv Polytechnic National University have been doing wide-ranging complex photogrammetric research at the Antarctic Station "Academician Vernadskyy". The station is located on one of the islands in Argentine Archipelago. The main aim of our experts is to fulfill the following tasks: to get a digital map with the scale of 1:1 000 which is to serve as a basis for GIS of the archipelago with the following indication of biologic, radiometric, magnetometric, geophysic and other data; to monitor the coastline and to find out the dependence of the changes on the natural factors; to research the DTM structure of the coastal glaciers, to determine the cinematic parameters (displacement) and glaciologic data.To accomplish these tasks we have elaborated and put into practice the mathematic model of photogrammetry of cinematic processes and complex technology of conducting digital terrestrial survey from a firm point and from a moving boat. In the course of the expedition period 2002- 2004 the researchers made about 1000 digital photographs that were stereoscopically processed on the digital photogrammetric station DELTA-2. The analysis of the digital maps and DTM proves effectiveness of technology, and accurate presentation of the changes of spatial objects. The paper includes the photos of Galindez Island and some cartographic material got in the course of research. THE MONITORING OF THE COASTLINE A wide range of researches and experiments has been done at the Ukrainian Antarctic Station "Academician Vernadskyy". Extensive
