Project EASTMAR, an aeromagnetic survey of major parts of the continental margin off East Greenland, is an energy research project funded by the Danish state through the Energy Agency (Thorning, 1978). The aim of the project, which started in 1977, is to map the shelf on a regional basis with a special emphasis on the delineation of the possibie hydrocarbon potential. In 1978 the main work has been the logisticaI preparations, the compilation of existing data and the negotiations with commercial companies interested in the airborne operations of 1979.
