DEW Line

• The DEW Line played an important role in the
  opening of the Arctic. With air navigation aids
  a runway at approximately every fifty miles, its
  presence accelerated development.
• The Arctic development was further accelerated by
  the search for a suitable new centre in the
  western arctic. The search led to East Three
  that became Inuvik.
