[IGSMAIL-6573] Revised Site Guidelines for public review

[Steve Fisher (IGS Central Bureau)]

Dear IGS Colleagues,
The Infrastructure Committee has conducted a detailed review of the IGS Site Guidelines, resulting in their first major revision since 2007. The revised document is posted online at http://igs.org/network/guidelines/proposed.html.

In addition to streamlining and updating content, new procedures to preserve the time series as stations are upgraded have been introduced, and a new section covering real-time stations was added.

A second document called "IGS Guidelines Clarifications" contains additional information that users may find beneficial in interpreting the Guidelines.

The revised Guidelines have been provisionally accepted by the Governing Board, though they have asked that comments be solicited from the broad IGS community before formally adopting them. We strongly encourage you to provide input at your earliest convenience, but no later than June 30, to allow time to integrate comments prior to the July 2012 Governing Board Meeting and Workshop.

Comments should be submitted by e-mail to the Central Bureau at cb [at]  igs.org with "Site Guidelines" in the subject line.


Sincerely,

Steve Fisher
on behalf of the Infrastructure Committee
