INRTU Land Surveyors Provide Aerial Survey for GV Gold Company
Vladimir Talgamer and Dmitry Maleev, employees of the Land Survey and Geodesic Innovations Center, carried out aerial photography surveys in the Bodaybinsky district. The customer of the works was GV Gold Company.
According to engineer Vladimir Talgamer, the surveyors carried out the work in two days on the site located 9 kilometers from Bodaybo towards Kropotkin. GV Gold plans to use the 11 hectare flat plot located on a hill, as a fuel and lubricants warehouse. University staff conducted an aerial survey of the site using UAVs.
“We prepared the site for aerial photography, including the creation of a ‘support zone’ using Trimble R8 GPS receivers in Static Mode, tied to triangulation points of the State Geodetic Control Network. Then the site was surveyed. At the moment the information has been processed, and a report, digital terrain model and topographic plan are being prepared. This will become the basis for the design documentation of the future combustive-lubricating warehouse,” - said Vladimir Talgamer.The client company compensated for transport costs and provided the university employees with accommodation and meals.
Vladimir has also added that he and his colleagues have already travelled to the Bodaybinsky district for several years. Students also become participants of field expeditions:
"The land surveying circle is quite narrow, many of our production colleagues are INRTU alumni. That is why we are often invited to gold mining sites. For example, engineer Alexey Tokin worked with students at the site of the Ugakhan Mining Company (a GV Gold Company) in the summer."Photos are taken from GV Gold Company website
