Description

This document describes the overall deployment of the EDEN ISS Mobile Test Facility to Antarctica. It
builds upon the EDEN ISS-DLR-WP4.4-D4.4-Overall System Test Report which described the assembly,
integration and test phase of the project as well as the preparation and transport of the facility to
Antarctica. This Initial System Test Report commences with the offloading of the Mobile Test Facility
from the S.A. Agulhas II research vessel in the vicinity of the Neumayer Station III. It then describes
the installation activities, results of initial on-site tests, issues encountered during the installation, as
well as particular design modifications incorporated into the facility.
