Epsilon Ursae Majoris (HD 112185) is one of the brightest peculiar A stars, and it has long been classified as Ap. In connection with an investigation of the surface of Epsilon UMa, high-precision profiles of the Fe I, Fe II, Cr I, Cr II lines in the stellar spectrum have been obtained with the aid of a reticon on a 1.2-m telescope. The obtained profiles have been employed to solve the inverse problem numerically by means of a method described by Goncharskii et al. (1977). The line profiles were recorded between March and August 1980 at 2.4-A dispersion with the coude spectrograph of a 1.2-A reflector. The profiles were recorded to better than 1 percent photometric accuracy.
