Ladies and Gentlemen

After the earthquake close to Concepcion / Chile,
the 30 sec daily data files and the 30 sec hourly data files
from our CONZ GPS+GLONASS Permanent Tracking
System and from our CONT GPS Permanent Tracking System
in the Transportable Integrated Geodetic Observatory TIGO
in Concepcion, Chile are available until DOY 058,
2010-02-27, 19:59:30 UT.

We already put these data files to the IGS Center in the
BKG in Frankfurt.

Since DOY 058 20:00 UT the connection to the Transportable
Integrated Geodetical Observatory, to CONZ and to
CONT is interrupted. The connection was routed via the
Universidad de Concepcion. First unconfirmed information said, the
Universidad de Concepcion burnt out ?

If more data files are stored for CONZ and CONT in the
TIGO computers, we will inform you, when they are available.

The Chilean Government declared a curfew in the city and around
Concepcion.

With best regards
Rudi
