http://www.antarctica.ac.uk/Living_and_Working/Stations/Sky_Blu/index.html.  The instrument is used to give reliable information to their support aircraft during take off and landings.  The groomed blue ice runway is up to 1.2km in length and 50 m wide, permanently marked by flags.

A second purchase in 2005 means the new Davis Vantage Pro 2, with its increased transmission range of up to 300 metres, is to be located at Fossil Bluff later in the year, http://www.antarctica.ac.uk/Living_and_Working/Stations/Fossil_Bluff/index.html.  this site is a facility for refueling aircraft and forms a transit sttaion for summer groups.  You land on a snow/ice runway 1200 m in length approximately 1 mile away from the hit.  Rows of drums mark the runway and contain fuel for refueling the aircraft.

The readings given to support aircraft by the Davis instruments is invaluable for transporting people, supplies and fuel safely in the harsh weather conditions experienced.
