<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am glad to share the below piece of news:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Geoscience Australia is proud to announce the release of the
<b>Robust Orbit Combination Software (ROCS)</b> as open source!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The software is designed to support the International GNSS Service (IGS) and is another step towards realizing a fully multi-GNSS IGS. ROCS combines multi-GNSS orbit products using a robust algorithm and allows several weighting algorithms.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please feel free to explore the software and provide your feedback either via the
<a href="https://github.com/GeoscienceAustralia/ROCS" target="_blank">GitHub page</a> or by contacting
<a href="mailto:acc@igs.org">acc@igs.org</a>. You may also contribute to the software via the same communication channels.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Kind Regards,<o:p></o:p></p>
