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]
