Summary:
UNAVCO supplied two complete GPS systems and in-field support for static and kinematic surveying in Victoria Valley on two separate occasions. Ground penetrating radar profiles, glacier boundaries, and old lake shore lines were surveyed in kinematic mode. Geological points in the valley and base station positions were surveyed with static surveys. The project was conducted in cooperation with ASA surveyor Jeff Scanniello who provided conventional survey equipment to complement the UNAVCO GPS equipment. UNAVCO also provided post processing and analysis of the GPS data. One new benchmark was put in at Victoria Valley lower camp.
