U. S. COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY 
The USC&GS Ship PIONEER will sail in 
mid-February of 1964 from San Francisco to 
take part in the International Indian Ocean Ex- 
pedition, returning to San Francisco the follow- 
ing September. In addition to underway obser- 
vations, en route to and from the Indian Ocean, 
the PIONEER will concentrate on gravity, mag- 
netic, and hydrographic operations in the Anda- 
man Sea and the eastern Bay of Bengal. Space 
will be made available aboard the vessel for 
two meteorologists and one or two biologists. 
Three north-south profiles of oceanographic 
stations are planned from 5°N to 5°S across the 
Equator south of the Bay of Bengal. 
These are only tentative plans covering 
work on specific Coast and Geodetic Survey

oceanographic vessels 
projects. It is anticipated that they will be 
modified and added to as the information from 
other participants becomes available and as 
other organizations develop cooperative pro- 
grams with the PIONEER. 
These plans are predicated on the assump- 
tion that TRANSIT navigation will be available 
for determining ship positions throughout the 
expedition.
