Summary:
The two TurboRogue receivers typically provided to SOAR each season were permanently transferred to the SOAR facility in Austin, Texas prior to the field season. S-098/SOAR requested UNAVCO technical support to survey the project's GPS base station locations at Siple Dome. The UNAVCO engineer collected GPS data from these locations, and post-processed the data at McMurdo to provide accurate reference coordinates prior to the start of the airborne surveys. UNAVCO provided additional data processing support from McMurdo during the field season, and satellite visibility planning information for the South Pole portion of the SOAR surveys.
