“Our task was to identify anomalies of soil in the future construction site because these zones are dangerous and interfering with construction. Based on the decoded and analyzed GPR data, we identified engineering survey points for the construction of the station”, commented Yury Vasiliev, executive director of the Institute of Arctic Technologies.
Note: on August 16 - 19, MIPT engineers together with partners conducted the 1st stage of geophysical engineering surveys in the "Jade Valley" at the Snowflake construction site in Yamal. They also made a 3D soils model, which saves time on basic surveys and minimizes construction costs due to an early design stage of the site plan for the Snowflake’s facilities.
