Brief Description (Abstract):

In this describes the various steps involved in the detail and contour (i.e. Original Plane Tabling) survey on scale 1:1,000 with 1 m contour interval for the proposed summer camp site which is North West of Indian station Maitri. It also narrates as to how the precise ground control network was formed which is a basic need for geographical field work and how Survey of India extended survey facilities to Geological Survey of India and Scientist of various participant organizations for carrying out their scientific activities in an efficient manner.

Status: Completed

Purpose: The developments due to the scientific activities carried out during the first nine Indian Scientific Expedition to Antarctica (ISEA) necessitated the provision of geographical control and mapping in the surroundings of Indian station Maitri located in east Antarctica. Survey of India was identified by the Department of Ocean Development to carryout mapping task from tenth ISEA onward.
