Abstract

A method for calibration of the URAN array, which consists of thin scintillation detectors, is discussed. It is based on comparing of detected extensive air shower events with events in the NEVOD-EAS array. The results of reconstruction of the air-shower parameters according to the URAN array data, obtained taking into account the calibration coefficients, are presented.
