CIS Geodesists Gather in Yerevan
Armenia is one of the few CIS states that has joined the World
Coordinate System and its satellite station-based data doesn't surpass
the limit of 1 sm.
Manuk Vardanian, chairman of Real Estate Cadastre Committee, informed
the journalists about this in the course of the 24th sitting of the
CIS Interstate Council of Geodesy and Cadastre, on May 16.
Cadastre specialists from Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Moldova,
Georgia, Belarus and Kyrgyzstan participated in the sitting. The
sitting will last three days. It is envisaged that the specialists
will discuss the issues of standards and measure systems, as well as
application of common model of satellite system.
Vardanian said that Armenia has fully implemented the commitments
undertaken in the course of the previous sitting. At present, the
geodesic calculations are being carried out in Armenia. This means that
at present, Armenia is quite capable of making its own maps, instead of
ordering them abroad. Vardanian also suggested elaborating the Internet
site of the Interstate Council to provide the specialists with relevant
information. The participants of the sitting accepted his suggestion.
