0215922WojtalThis Major Research Instrumentation grant provides funds to Oberlin College to purchase equipment that will enable the PIs to map, analyze, and visualize in three dimensions both mesoscopic geological structures and archeological sites as well as the geographic/geologic environment in which they occur. The equipment will include: (1) a Trimble 3600 total station, a Trimble GPS total station, two Trimble ProXRS backpack-style GPS receivers, and four Trimble Explorer hand-held GPS units. The PIs will use this equipment to map with high precision the surface topography of geological and archeological research sites and to locate data stations, geologic samples, and archeological artifacts. The PIs are faculty from three departments at Oberlin College, a private, four-year undergraduate liberal arts college. They will use the requested equipment to enhance their existing individual research projects in geology and archeology, to undertake new collaborative research at an archeological site in Italy, and to train research students in modern techniques for surveying, three-dimensional visualization, and three-dimensional analysis. The equipment will be stored in the Department of Geology, and PI Wojtal will assume primary responsibility for training, equipment maintenance, and the scheduling of equipment use. ***

[0215922]这项主要研究仪器补助金为奥柏林学院提供资金，用于购买设备，使pi能够在三维空间中绘制，分析和可视化介观地质结构和考古遗址以及它们发生的地理/地质环境。设备将包括：(1)一个Trimble 3600全站仪、一个Trimble GPS全站仪、两个Trimble ProXRS背包式GPS接收器和四个Trimble Explorer手持式GPS单元。pi将使用该设备高精度地绘制地质和考古研究地点的表面地形图，并定位数据站、地质样本和考古文物。这些pi是奥柏林学院（Oberlin College）三个系的教员。奥柏林学院是一所私立的四年制本科文理学院。他们将使用所要求的设备来加强他们在地质学和考古学方面现有的个人研究项目，在意大利的一个考古遗址进行新的合作研究，并培训研究学生掌握现代测量、三维可视化和三维分析技术。设备将存放在地质系，PI Wojtal将承担培训、设备维护和设备使用调度的主要责任。＊＊＊
