Complex Aerial Surveys Using for Engineering and Ecological Prospects (as an Example of Bajdaratskaya Bay)

Thesis formulated in title this paper concerns for research of sea upper subsurface layers, and it basis on researches experience and results which were got in engineering and ecological prospects (EEP) carrying out in Baydaratskaya Bay of the Kara Sea in 2006-2007.
Under aerial surveys understands carrying out of synchronous aerial visual observations and airborne remote sensing with using of special equipments which work in several ranges of electromagnetic wavelengths providing simultaneously measuring of several parameters about conditions of surface and subsurface layers including detection and recording of any pollutions types, and also allowing to get data about marine biological objects distribution and numbers (marine mammals, seabirds, fish schools and so-on). In this all information put on onboard aircraft computer system in real time and position. In our case here was used specially equipped by PINRO specialists aircraft “Antonov-26” (An-26), named “ARKTIKA”. Here was installed and exploited following remote sensing equipments:
1. Infrared radiometer;
2. Polarization airborne lidar (PAL-1M);
3. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR);
4. Digital photo- and video equipments.
Also carry out standard visual observations.
All information in real position and time (on base of GPS using) put on onboard research aircraft computer. Here also organized local aircraft computer net (so named intranet). Final result of EEP aerial survey is complex mapping all collected data (as GIS presentation) after special processing of rough data.
Using above principles allow to get considerable economical adventage.
