The Great Wall resource investigation has kicked off officially in Hebei Province. It is the first time for China to make precise measurement and accurate survey on the Great Wall with comprehensive investigation
and mapping skills, which will be undertaken for several years.

China has launched the nationwide investigation of the Great Wall for twice since the establishment of the new China. In the mid-1950s, China
did primary investigation on the age and distribution of the Great Wall with the help of the national cultural relic survey, and the second-time investigation was undertaken in the 1980s.
