Equipment Available

A geodetic quality, dual-frequency base station is available at the WAIS Divide camp. When used with geodetic quality roving systems, centimeter-level accuracy can be realized over 100 kilometers away from the station by collecting and post-processing data. A computer is available at the camp for data downloading and backup, and base station data (15-second logging) are available on-line from the UNAVCO Archive (sites WAIS and WAI2) after each field season.
