Summary
A comprehensive effort to locate and restore the Ukrainian segment of the Struve Geodetic Arc was conducted between 2009 and 2010. This study documented critical findings related to the identification and preservation of key geodetic points along the meridian 26°43'. The research employed a systematic approach, combining historical analysis with fieldwork to pinpoint the exact locations of these significant landmarks. By integrating archival data with modern surveying techniques, the study provided valuable insights into the arc's historical significance and its role in 19th-century geodesy. This work not only contributed to the understanding of the Struve Geodetic Arc but also laid the groundwork for its inclusion on the UNESCO list.
