✦ Synopsis

The large area coordinate detector (DECOR) represents a multilayer system of plastic streamer tube chamber modules surrounding the Cherenkov water calorimeter NEVOD. Experimental data collected during the test expositions of first DECOR supermodules (8 vertical planes with 8.4 m e working area) have been analysed, angulm and spatial reconstruction accuracies have been estimated. The procedure of the selection of events corresponding t.o detection of parallel tracks (muon bundles originated in the atmosphere) is discussed.
