countries through the territories of which runs the Struvė Geodetic Arc proposed to inscribe it
to the World Heritage List. The task groups of Sweden, Norway, Finland, Russia, Estonia,
Latvia, Lithuania, Belarus, the Ukraine and Moldova that prepared their nominations were lead
by the National Land Survey of Finland. National Land Survey of Lithuania under the Ministry
of Agriculture and Institute of Geodesy at Vilnius Gediminas Technical University suggested

Meškonys, Paliepiukai and Gireišiai; these are at present state geodesic stations.
