<br>
<br>
In the past years, the IC also interacted with the regional
densifications of the IGS (eg EUREF and SIRGAS) to ensure that the
policies, standards, guidelines, and recommendations developed by
the IC were supported and used within the regional networks (which
have overlaps with the IGS network). It has been a fruitful and
useful interaction and it is important to keep it.
<br>
<br>
However, this interaction is presently missing in the charter.
Would it be possible to add it?
<br>
<br>
Best regards,
<br>
Carine

Dear all,
<br>
<br>
Find enclosed the new Infrastructure Committee Charter for your
perusal and comments. This responds to the Wuhan recommendation
2018-3 agreed at the last workshop splinter meeting. The changes
are highlighted in blue in the document enclosed. Please send
your suggestions and comments. The original Charter can be seen
here
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://kb.igs.org/hc/en-us/article_attachments/200623256/IGS_IC_Charter.pdf">https://kb.igs.org/hc/en-us/article_attachments/200623256/IGS_IC_Charter.pdf</a>)<br>
<br>
These changes are a consequence of the recommendation coming
from the decision of the GB to create the new GB position of DCC
(Data Center Coordinator), and to merge the DC WG and the IC
since the activities overlap so much. As you know we have been
coordinating all DC issues through the IC for many years. The
Final issue has been the suggestion by the CB to make the IC
Chair the new 'IGS Infrastructure Coordinator' with a vote in
the GB meetings so that infrastructure is better represented.
<br>
<br>
In summary;
<br>
<br>
- Over the last few years, a majority of the activities
typically addressed within the IGS Data Center Working Group has
been carried out within the Infrastructure Committee. Examples
include the integration of multi-GNSS sites and RINEX V3 data
into the archive structure of the IGS GDCs. Thus, given the
success of such cooperation, we have discussed the need for a
separate working group for data center activities.
<br>
<br>
- In consultation with the IGS Governing Board, modifications
have been made to the IGS Terms of Reference to create a Data
Center Coordinator position in the GB that works closely with
the IC. As per the ToR, the DCC will assist the IGS DCs,
monitoring activities to ensure that the IGS objectives are
carried out, primarily the collection and dissemination of IGS
data and analysis products. Other responsibilities include
quality control of the IGS related files, performance
evaluation, and continued development of appropriate analysis
standards.
<br>
<br>
- The responsibilities for the DCC will rotate among the DCs
with appointments and terms specified by the GB.
<br>
<br>
<br>
To discuss these issues, the new IC Charter, and to conduct a
revision of the outstanding recommendations from Wuhan (enclosed
pdf), and any other issue you suggest, we would like to hold a
Teleconf in the near future.
<br>
<br>
Please use the following doodle to indicate your preference of
time and date. At the teleconf we will ask for your agreement to
the Charter so that it may be submitted to the next GB meeting
in May. Thank you for your participation;
