Abstract
Designing roads in the Arctic (Greenland ) and stretches 157 km between the towns of Sisimiut and Kangerlussuaq carried out in difficult climatic and geotechnical conditions in the presence of permafrost , which required in-depth analysis and research. For the design of the road in Greenland were conducted geotechnical investigations along the entire route , which included field geological, geophysical and other studies also were surveyed route through aerial photography, digital terrain model prepared by the earth's surface measuring 2 km x170 km . With Novapoint program created detailed geometric digital model runs, calculate the volume of earthworks built transverse and longitudinal sections of the road. According to the results of all this work was created virtual model of the route, as well as a film about the future road.
