[IGSMAIL-7873] Beidou-2 metadata information released [SEC=OFFICIAL]

[Moore Michael]

Dear Colleagues,

Good news! The metadata for Beidou-2 has been released:  http://en.beidou.gov.cn/WHATSNEWS/201912/t20191209_19641.html<https://slack-redir.net/link?url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.beidou.gov.cn%2FWHATSNEWS%2F201912%2Ft20191209_19641.html>

The metadata obtained from service providers greatly helps in our orbit modeling and is greatly appreciated by our community. Thank you!

This metadata can have even further scientific benefits, such as the realization of the reference frames. For instance, the metadata information we have obtained from GSA on the Galileo satellites is forming the basis for our next reprocessing effort and will allow IGS to obtain our first estimates of scale!

Just two more to go.

Michael Moore
