Full description

A survey control point (RR23-01) has been placed at Robinson Ridge, Windmill Islands, East Antarctica.
It consists of a hardened steel, galvanised survey nail with flat round head and centring mark, with inscription ‘survey point’. It has been hammered into an existing crack in the rock.

This survey mark was emplaced under the Notice of Determination and Authorisation – Variation 3 for Project 4503: Reducing Environmental Impacts at Contaminated Sites in Antarctica.

Lineage

Progress Code: completed
Statement: Survey point has been calculated using a single base station (at Casey), and a relatively short acquisition period (4 hours). Quality is expected to be adequate for most purposes.

Notes

Purpose
Robinson Ridge is an important study location used to monitor vegetation health (AAS 2952) and soil biodiversity (AAS 4406). Nearby quadrats are used to monitor vegetation health as part of the State of the Environment Indicator 72: Windmill Islands terrestrial vegetation dynamics (Robinson, 2009). This location was installed to support scientific research at Robinson Ridge and nearby sites. If using differential GNSS/GPS, or conducting RTK photography/photogrammetry, this survey benchmark can be used for establishing the base station or as a ground control point.
