Subject : IGS site information and coordinates
          ------------------------------------

        Dear Colleagues,

        Please find enclosed an updated version of the two IERS/IGS Tables
which were sent to you in IGS Mail #33:

Table 1: IERS/IGS station list which was previously sent to you 3 times and
this is the 4th updated version.
Table 2: IERS/IGS station coordinates in the ITRF91 at epoch 1992.5, which
is the 2nd updated version.

Table 1 updates
---------------
1) Ny-Alesund antenna height according to IGS Mail #40.
2) Herstmonceux local tie according to IGS Mail #57.
3) Santiago new GPS mark (DOMES no. 41705M003), local tie from VLBI CDP1404
   to GPS mark according to IGS Mail #42.
4) Canberra local tie from VLBI DSS45 (CDP1545) to the bottom of the
   choke ring of the ROGUE antenna, according to IGS Mail # 35.
5) New ROGUE antenna at Richmond, accoring to IGS Mail # 54. Since this
   antenna is mounted on the CDP mark 7295, we propose as IGS code 7295.
6) New Trimble 4000 SST at Orroral, accoring to IGS Mail # 54. we propose
   as IGS code ORRT.
7) New Ashtech antenna at Zimmerwald, accoring to IGS Mail # 57. The
   propsed IGS code is ZIMA.
8) New Ashtech antenna at Graz, accoring to IGS Mail # 57. we propose as
   IGS code GRAA.
9) Due to mis'identification of Pamatai GPS mark in the previous list (IGS
   Mail #33), its DOMES no. is now updated: 92201M003.


Table 2 updates
---------------

The ITRF91 coordinates at epoch 1992.5 for the following sites are updated:

HERS, SANT, CANB, PAMA, MCMU, WELL, TOWN, TAIW, HART and NYAL

Please refer to the notes given at the end of Table 2 explaining how these
coordinates were estimated.


P.S.: Local ties for GRAA, USUD, ORRO and ORRT are still unkown


Best regards.

(1) Coordinates issued from the ITRF91 solution.
(2) Coordinates issued from the ITRF91 solution and reduced to the bottom
    of the choke ring, since the coordinates were initially referred to the
    top of the choke ring.
(3) Coordinates referred to GPS marks, obtained by adding the local tie
    values from Table 1 to the SLR/VLBI mark coordinates.
(4) Coordinates estimated by AIUB/THD in the ITRF90 and then transformed by
    IGN into the ITRF91.
(5) Coordinates for Ny-Alesund, issued from ITRF91 and taking into account
    that the actual antenna height is 5.203 instead of 1.740 which was used
    in JPL GIG'91 solution.
(6) Coordinates estimated by SIO (IGS mail #35), transformed into
    ITRF91 by applying 7 transformation parameters and then reduced to
    the bottom of preamplifier of the TRIMBLE antenna since the coordinates
    were initially referred to the L1 phase center.
(7) Coordinates estimated by SIO (IGS mail #56), transformed into
    ITRF91 by applying 7 transformation parameters.
