Polish Antarctic Expedition

The Polish Antarctic Expedition to the A. B. Dobrowolski Polar Station was conducted by a team of doctors, geophysicists, and geomorphologists between 1978-1979. It was sponsored by the Polish Academy of Sciences.[1] This was the third expedition organised by the Polish Academy of Sciences, and included establishing a geodetic network in the Bunger Oasis, setting up an astronomical reference point, magnetic observations, and photogrammetric surveys to make maps of the vicinity of the station.[2]

Geodetic Network

A geodetic network was established in the Bunger Oasis by Dr. A. Pachuta and Dr. J. Cisak, using theodolites Wild T2 and distancemeters Zeiss EOK, and consisted of 26 points.[3]

gollark: Oh dear. Guess you're doomed. Try reinstalling.
gollark: Just do something like```luawhile true do local ev, timer = os.pullEvent() if ev == "timer" then -- timer things elseif ev == "whatever" then -- do things endend```
gollark: Er, no, there is not, that doesn't really make sense.
gollark: Amazing.
