| Research Abstract |
We constructed a near infrared survey station at South African astronomical observatory in Sutherland. In Jul 2009, we executed UIR band (Unidentified Infra-Red) survey toward the galactic center with 5 square degrees for about one month. All UIR point like and diffuse sources significantly detected consist with known object of star forming region and cluster by previous work. However we could not detect a new object such as high mass star forming region M42 within the survey area. Furthermore, all sources we detected are in the central 1 degree square of the galactic center.
