Radstock Bay, N.W.T., compared with Resolute Bay, N.W.T., as a potential airbase and harbor / R.T. Gajda.: M67/37E-PDF

"This report presents results of geographical reconnaissance surveys of the settlement at Resolute and the area of Radstock Bay, carried out during the summers of 1948, 1949 and 1959. Some meteorological factors influencing sea and air navigation in northern areas have also been included. The original results have already been utilized by various federal government departments, particularly the Departments of National Defence, Transport and Northern Affairs, but because of the more general need for geographical information about many parts of the north, it was decided to publish this report. It is hoped that this will be of assistance to those who are concerned with the application of northern terrain characteristics and other geographical conditions to problems connected with site selection, construction, communication and transportation requirements"--Preface.
