Abstract

A three year systematic field mapping programme in the Peary Land region, north of c. lat. 81° N and east of c. long 40° W, was initiated in the summer of 1978 with the aim of producing a 1:500000 map sheet of eastern North Greenland and investigating the geological framework of the region. The expedition was carried out in cooperation with a seven man group from the Geodetic Institute, Copenhagen, who undertook a general surveying programme establishing ground control points for a new topographic map of North Greenland.
