[IGSMAIL-7954] IGS Sessoin in the AGU Program

[Rolf Dach]

Dear IGS colleagues,

regarding the success of the IGS session during the last years AGU we 
are happy to announce again a session to promote the generation and the 
usage of IGS products for scientific research:

G010: "Scientific Applications Enabled by the International GNSS Service 
(IGS) and Associated Improvements to GNSS Products"

As the title promises it shall become a platform for interactions 
between people that are using our products and those that are generating 
them. The conveners Allison B. Craddock (JPL, USA), Felix Perosanz 
(CNES, France) and myself hope for many interesting contributions in 
order to establish an active exchange.

Please be reminded that AGU abstracts may be submitted until 20th of 
July 2020 via the AGU abstract submission form:
https://agu.confex.com/agu/fm20/prelim.cgi/Session/101732

More information about the planned event can be found at:

Best regards

Rolf, Allison, and Felix

G010 - Scientific Applications Enabled by the International GNSS Service 
(IGS) and Associated Improvements to GNSS Products
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The International GNSS Service (IGS) provides the scientific community 
with a broad range of high-precision products supporting a wide 
diversity of scientific applications. Currently three fully-deployed 
GNSS are analyzed by IGS Analysis Centers and included in the currently 
running reprocessing effort: GPS (USA), GLONASS (Russia), and Galileo 
(Europe). Developments including additional GNSS (Chinese BeiDou, 
Japanese QZSS, Indian NavIC, etc.) are ongoing within the IGS.

Several components of the IGS do already support a fully consistent 
processing of GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo in the operational chain as well 
as for the currently running reprocessing effort.  The continuous 
improvement of IGS products in this fast-moving field --€“ with 
constantly evolving satellites, systems, signals, models, and data 
analysis methodology --€“ is a scientific challenge.

This session solicits presentations on scientific applications enabled 
by IGS products and new science enabled by improvements to quality and 
breadth of GNSS products.
