Aerial photography of Russian Antarctic stations Mirny and Progress in summer of 2014/15

Aerial photographing performed during the field season of 60th Russian Antarctic Expedition (2014/2015) made possible to construct a photoplan of the Mirny station. Its size is 3,5×3,5 km with resolution of 16 pixels/cm, and it will be used as a basis for designing of new airport. Similar work had b...

Description
Summary:Aerial photographing performed during the field season of 60th Russian Antarctic Expedition (2014/2015) made possible to construct a photoplan of the Mirny station. Its size is 3,5×3,5 km with resolution of 16 pixels/cm, and it will be used as a basis for designing of new airport. Similar work had been done over the Progress station along the route “Progress – Vostok”, about 35 km long. It was found that any crevasses dangerous for people and transport were absent on this area. В результате работ летом 2014/15 г. составлен фотоплан района станции Мирный размером 3,5 × 3,5 км с детальностью 16 пиксель/см; он станет основой при планировании здесь нового аэродрома. Аналогичная работа выполнена в районе станции Прогресс на участке протяжённостью около 35 км вдоль трассы «Прогресс – Восток». Установлено, что трещины, опасные для людей и транспортной техники, на этой территории отсутствуют.
