The regular measurements of Triglav glacier on yearly basis began in 1946. At first the measurements involved hand measurements of glacier retreat from permanently marked points on rocks around ...theglacier. First tahimetric measurements were performed in year 1952. These measurements were used for map drawing and measurement of before mentioned permanently marked points. The next tahimetricmeasurements followed in 1995. With the year 1999 regular photogrammetric measurements of Triglav glacier began on biannual basis, with different geodetic measurements of control points included. The article describes a history of geodetic field-work on Triglav glacier. Mainly geodetic measurements were performed in local coordinate system, which should be transformed in global coordinate system to enable a comparison of different time cross-section.
