NASA will be performing network maintenance on Wednesday, November 20, 2024, between 11:00 AM EST and 1:00 PM EST (16:00 to 18:00 UTC). There will be two periods of about five minutes of disruption. During these peroids, the ILRS website will be unavailable during the outages. If you experience problems outside this window, contact support-cddis@nasa.gov.

Agenda

Opening – Agenda review and adjustment & announcements  
Old topics:  
 
  • Benchmark project: status
    • GA
    • GRGS
    • UoN
  • Operational product "positioning + earth orientation"
    • ITRF2005 & ITRF200X: ILRS 1983-1992 reports on analysis progress
      • ASI
      • BKG
      • DGFI
      • GFZ
      • JCET
      • NSGF
    • operational product: ILRS-A/B technique issues, quality/refinement of products (e.g. weekly geocenter)
      • Generation of a SLR-only TRF ala IGS00, etc.
      • Adoption of an ITRF2000 replacement timetable (ITRF2005SLR?)
    • new products (e.g. daily EOP ala NEOS)
  • System bias studies (present and future):
    • Stanford ET status report (Appleby & Gibbs)
    • CoM corrections for all targets, sites and time periods/configurations
    • Core site bias characterization in view of ILRS’ mm-SLR goal
  • Quality assessment of new SLR systems/sites (H. Müller)
  • Station performance card (ASI CC & DGFI CC)
  • Precise orbital product project (SP3c)
    • Status report (ECP & Müller and CC reps)
  • Project "harmonization"
    • Status report (Mareyen)
 
NEW topics:  
 
  • GGOS and ILRS, establishing a closer tie with GGOS and maintaining a “live” link to GGOS, providing input for the studies and support documents that GGOS requires
  • Independent validation of SLR height variations and bias estimates with a routine AG survey of the core sites over time (1 to 4 times per year - baseline, once a month - goal)
  • Report of the new WG on the evaluation/validation effort for site-ties between SLR and other techniques (GB & CL)
  • Generation of “clean” observational data set with known biases applied? (for use by POD groups)
  
Miscellanea:  
 
  • SLR tracking network (status, weekend effect)
  • consistency of QC reports (ILRS CB)
  • documentation of analysis (ECP & CL)
  • special issue Journal of Geodesy (Noomen)
  • other ???
  
Next meeting(s):  
 
  • 2-day meeting at Perugia (IUGG/IAG, July) ?
  • 1-day meeting at Grasse Tech. Workshop (September)?
  • N-day IAG Services’ workshop prior to Fall AGU (San Francisco, December ‘07)
