1977-78 Season

Engineers: David Reed, Eberhand G. Schirmacher, Robin Schumtzler, and Harry Zohn, Jr.

Intersected peak positions determined by terrestrial surveys employing Wild T-2 theodolite for angular measurements and Electro-tapes for distance measurements from positions developed by geoceiver (Doppler) observations.

Elevations based on sea level using the NASA Goddard Earth Model (GEM) 10B.

Located in Ellsworth Land N of Hauber Mountains approximately 32 km N of Novocin Peak, approximately 30 km W of Mt. Leek, and approximately 27 km E of Shelton Nunataks, intersected station.

Survey mark - highest point

Surveyed on 05 December 1977.

Horizontal Datum - The positions are based on WGS 66 datum. The adjusted network was fitted to the geoceiver stations by a least squares transformation and the residuals were less than two meters.

Vertical Datum - Geodetic heights corrected to the geoid using NASA GEM 10B. No direct connections to sea level were made.
