[IGSMAIL-6212] FW: Fall AGU 2010 Meeting, Session G20, Systematic Errors in Space Geodetic Results

[Neilan, Ruth E (3300)]

Author: Shailen Desai & Pascal Willis

Dear Colleagues,

We draw your attention to the following session at the December (Fall) 2010
AGU meeting in San Francisco.

Session G20: Identification and Mitigation of Systematic Errors in Space
Geodetic Results

Description:
Current space geodetic techniques, such as GPS, GLONASS, DORIS, SLR, and
VLBI, are providing new geodetic results with unprecedented precision. This
is enabling the identification of systematic errors that have previously
gone undetected but which are impacting the interpretation of space geodetic
results. This session aims to address the identification of these types of
systematic errors (e.g. solar radiation pressure, atmospheric effects,
antenna calibrations, timing), the impact that they have on geodetic
observations (e.g. coordinates, reference frame, Earth orientation, precise
orbit determination), and potential mitigation approaches (e.g. analytical
or processing approach).

Conveners:
Shailen Desai
Jet Propulsion Laboratory
California Institute of Technology
Pasadena, CA, USA.

Pascal Willis
Institut Geographique National
Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris
Paris, France

Please note the following deadlines and dates for this meeting.

Abstract Deadline: September 2, 2010.
Fall AGU Meeting Date: December 13-17, 2010.

We look forward to seeing you in San Francisco.

Best Regards,
Shailen Desai and Pascal Willis
