Works on geodesic and cartographic support of the Republic of Crimea and the city of federal significance Sevastopol

By the orders of the Government of the Russian Federation, JSC «Roscartography» was determined to be the exclusive distributor of geodesic and cartographic support for the Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.

During the implementation of this project, the following works were carried out:

• Creation of open use digital topographic maps of scales 1:50 000, 1:100 000 on the territory of the Crimean Federal District;
• Creation of points of the Fundamental astronomical and geodetic network, the High-precision geodetic network and the Satellite geodetic network of the first class with implementation of satellite measurements providing transition to the Geodesic Coordinate System-2011;
• Preparation of open use digital topographic maps on a scale of 1:10000 for territorial planning and urban zoning of the territories of the Republic of Crimea and the federal city of Sevastopol;
• A set of works on the development of the Main High-altitude Base on the territory of the Republic of Crimea (additional installation of points, satellite coordinates, leveling of class I);
• Survey, restoring, laying of the Main High-altitude Base points, pre-project reconnaissance of leveling lines of classes I and II and development of a technical project for the implementation of works on the development of the Main High-altitude Base on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula;
• Survey and restoring of points of the state geodetic network and development of a technical project for the implementation of geodetic works on the development of the geodetic network on the territory of the Crimean Peninsula;
• Creating a map base of scales 1:2 000, 1:10 000 on the territory of the Crimean Federal District.
• Aerial photography of the entire territory of the Republic (27,000 km2) was carried out on a scale of 1:10 000;
• Aerial photography of all the settlements of the Republic was made on a scale of 1:2000.

The created materials were transferred to the Federal Cartographic and Geodetic Fund and can be used by the regional authorities of the Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol.
