Drone imagery was captured by BAS Engineering Team in January 2026. The station is on a moving ice shelf, therefore the imagery was georeferenced to GNSS locations dated 12th August 2026 to ensure the coordinates matched the current station location.
              
Facility and asset locations, as well as operational information was provided as annotations by the BAS Engineering team. All final details were checked with Station Operations and Engineering teams.
              
Data sources: * Station Orthomosaic acquired and processed by BAS Engineering Team, January 2026 * Facility and Asset information provided by BAS Station Operations and Engineering teams
