Subject: IGS site information catalogue
         ----------------------------------

       Dear Colleagues,

       In IGS Mail #260, Ruth Neilan sent the Site Information Form to be 
filled out by each GPS tracking station and then to be forwarded to the IGS 
Central Bureau.

Meanwhile, many people are pressed for time to have information about the 
description of markers for which we provided coordinates and eccentricities
in previous IGS mails. For this reason, you find enclosed a table (which will 
be labelled Table 3) which is a "compressed" IERS/IGS catalogue containing 
for each site the name, DOMES number, 4 char ID, CDP number and the 
designation of the reference points and markers. When the description 
of the IGS GPS marker is unknown, this is designated by "GPS Mark".

This table, as well as Table 1 of the preceding IGSMAIL, should help filling 
out the Site Information Form and also help identifying missing or 
contradicting information. It will be also reviewed using the returned 
Site Information Form.

Regards

Claude Boucher and Zuheir Altamimi
