En constant Fejl af 10" i Højderne vil forandre den
beregnede Bredde saa meget som 10. "02 og den beregnede
Længde saa meget som 0/52. Resultatet bliver saaledes
for Ankerpladsen paa Østsiden
Scoresby’s Kart1, paa hvilket Fugleberget let kan
identificeres, lægger dette 1.’6 nordligere og 31’ (10
Kvart-mil) østligere end min Bestemmelse. Scoresby’s
Observationer gjordes den 3die og 4de August 1817. I 1878
fandt den hollandske Expedition med Skonnerten "Willem
Barendsz", at Jan Mayen ligger vestligere end paa Scoresby’s
Kart. Efter min Bestemmelse er Øen aflagt paa det af
Capt. Wille og mig over samme udarbejdede nye Kart.
der følger senere i denne Generalberetning.2
A constant error of 10" in the altitudes will change
the computed latitude as much as 10. "02, and the
computed longitude as much as 0.’52. Hence, the result for
our anchorage off the east coast is -
Scoresby’s Map.1 On which the Fugleberg may be
easily found, places that mountain 1.’6 north and 31’ (10
miles) east of my determination. Scoreby’s observations
were taken on the 3rd and 4tli of August 1817. In 1878,
the Dutch Expedition, with the schooner Willem Barendsz,"
found the Island of Jan Mayen to lie farther west than
it does on Scoresby’s map. For the new map of Jan
Mayen constructed by Capt. Wille and myself, — to be
subsequently published in the General Report. - — the
position of the island was laid down from my own determination
of latitude and longitude.
