Abstract:

During 2002/2003 austral summer season,the 19th Chinese National Antarctic Research Expedition(CHINARE)carried out the 3rd expedition in Grove Mountains,East Antarctica. The extension is 72°20′to 73°12′S,73°40′to 75°50′E and covers approximately 8000km~2. Seven Geodetic control points were set up with the support of helicopter and over-snow vehicles using duel frequency GPS receivers.GAMIT/GLOBK,a comprehensive GPS analysis paekage was used to process the GPS,data.The results show the precision is good enough to satisfy the acquirement of mapping from the satellite image map in Grove Mountains.
