Summary:
Dr. Kvitek requested two UNAVCO receivers and real-time radio equipment to augment his own GPS/GIS system.
Although S-320 is entirely self sufficient for their GPS needs, UNAVCO equipment and support was requested
since there were to be two simultaneous S-320 events, S-320A and S-320B. Both of these projects had GPS needs;
one at McMurdo Station and one at Granite Harbor. The Granite Harbor project was cancelled at the last minute due
to non-availability of ASA support. UNAVCO, however, was not made aware of this change until on the ice. As a
result, support to S-320A (Kathy Conlan) was limited to providing coordinates of a few dive holes in the McMurdo
area. This work was performed with the real-time differential system and required no post-processing of data.
