Brief Description (Abstract):

The Survey of India has been associated with the Indian Antarctic Research Programme since X expedition to carry out mapping task in Antarctica. During X expedition geodetic control points had been established in Schirmacher Oasis. In XI & XII expeditions the original plane table (PT) survey work had been carried out on 1:5,000 scale with 5 m contour interval using the control points established by the SOI team of X expedition. During these two expeditions, an area of 3.2 sq. km. was covered by survey teams.

Status: Completed

Purpose: The scientific team of survey of India during the XXI Indian scientific expedition, Austral Summer 2002, reached Antarctica with the objectives to prepare a large scale map covering an area of 500 m ? 400 m on scale 11,000 with lm contour interval, for establishing the new Indian Research Station.
