[IGSMAIL-6341] Tide Gauge Benchmark Monitoring - Call for Participation

[Urs Hugentobler]

Dear Colleagues

Over the past years the Tide Gauge Benchmark Monitoring Pilot Project 
(TIGA) of the IGS has contributed significantly to the understanding of 
phenomena related to global and regional sea level change. Since 2001 
TIGA has been providing geocentric coordinates and vertical rates for a 
large number of GPS sites worldwide.

The TIGA Pilot Project is now in transition to an IGS Working Group 
responsible for the production of a dedicated TIGA Product. This will 
involve reprocessing of GNSS data of IGS and non-IGS stations at tide 
gauges and the provision of a dedicated TIGA combination product. The 
IGS thus solicits organizations and groups to participate in this effort 
with the Call for Participation that can be found at

We look forward to responses from a wide range of contributing 
organizations and groups and a successful Working Group phase.

Sincerely Yours,
Urs Hugentobler
