*******************************************************************************
IGS Final orbits/clocks completed and put onto CDDIS (Weeks 817 - 820)
(Sep 03 - Sep 30, 1995)
*******************************************************************************
The IGS Rapid Orbits for this period were recomputed using up to date
orbits and the final EOP values of Bulletin B, published by IERS. ( Daily
values, page 2 of Bull. B ) The EOP were corrected for the difference
between the IERS pole series and ITRF as published in the IERS 1993 Annual
Report (p. II-19, Table II-3), so both the IGS orbits and the associated
ERP files are consistent with ITRF93 (current epoch).
We have downloaded all the submitted ephemeris and ERP files from CDDIS
before the final orbit/clock combination to ensure that the sets are
complete and up to date. In the final combination we have largely followed
the actions taken during the Rapid orbit generation and since there were
very few orbit resubmissions, both the IGS Rapid and Final orbits are
virtually the same except for the orientation difference (IGS mean pole and
Bull.B). Orbit evaluation are also nearly the same, since we used centre
specific ERP in the long arc evaluations. For more information see the
corresponding summary files on CDDIS.
The clock solution alignment and centre clock weight assignment are based
on non-SA broadcast satellite corrections only (PRN12, 15, 28). This should
result in an objective clock weighting, provided that the non-SA satellites
are representative of centre clock solution quality. Starting with the GPS
week 756 the new IGS erp format (see IGSMAIL# 662) is used by all Analysis
Centres and for the IGS erp files. ERP rates, whenever given, are also
utilized in both orbit combination and the long arc evaluation.
PRODUCTS GENERATED:
The resulting final IGS ephemeris and clocks are in daily files in the SP3
format. The sat. orb. accuracy codes displayed in the headers are based on
weighted RMS for each satellite. Note that each file contains all the submitted
satellites. If a satellite or centre had to be excluded from the combination it
is noted in the summary file along with the reason for doing so.

REMARKS/CORRECTIONS:
************* NOTE: ***************************
Since Wk 803 the IGS Rapid combinations are performed directly in ITRF frame,
without any EOP alignments. The associated erp files (IGR0WWW7.erp) contain
weighted averages of all submitted erp solutions given at 12h UT each day
(using the orbit weights), augmented with the current IERS Bull.A UT1-UTC.
Consequently, since Wk 803, the IGR erp contains 7 daily EOP values at 12h UT,
unlike the Final orbit erp (and the Rapid orbit erp prior Wk 803) which
contain 9 daily IERS EOP values at 0h UT to facilitate accurate interpolation
for the whole week period.
