wilno
Nearly four months ago, we reported on the journey of three young researchers from the Department of Geodesy at Gdańsk University of Technology to Lithuania with the aim of establishing research cooperation with the academic staff of the Department of Geodesy and Cadastre at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University.

At that time, Ph.D. Eng. Paweł Burdziakowski, Ph.D. Eng. Paweł Tysiąc, and Ph.D. Eng. Marek Hubert Zienkiewicz traveled to the capital of the Republic of Lithuania, where, along with the Lithuanian research team under the leadership of Professor Jūratė Sužiedelytė-Visockienė, they conducted joint photogrammetric and remote sensing measurements of the Upper Castle and its mountain slope.
