Summary:
Field project leader Tom Gelatt requested GPS coordinates to accurately document next season's proposed Big
Razorback hut location. Meter level precision was required due to the proximity to Big Razorback Island and the
nearby seals. With these coordinates, the hut can potentially be placed in the correct location by ASA without field
team members present. This support work was done using RTCM differential corrections transmitted by the
UNAVCO differential station at McMurdo, and did not require post-processing of data.
