[S-GD01] [EE] Geodetic Technologies, Networks and Strategies for Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS)

Wed. May 24, 2017 1:45 PM - 3:15 PM 202 (International Conference Hall 2F)

convener:Ryoji Kawabata(Geospatial Information Authority of Japan), Michael R Pearlman(Center for Astrophysics), Takahiro Wakasugi(Geospatial Information Authority of Japan), Chairperson:Michael Pearlman(Center for Astrophysics), Chairperson:Takahiro Wakasugi(Geospatial Information Authority of Japan)

The Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) measures the time-varying shape, rotation, and gravity field of the Earth, which provide accurate geodetic reference frames and enable us to understand various processes occurring on the Earth. Many institutions are developing their geodetic instruments to contribute to GGOS realization and devoted to research activities for Earth science. These activities are well coordinated and supported by international scientific services of International Association of Geodesy so as to foster global collaboration. This session will focus on reporting and discussing recent status of geodetic infrastructure and the results of data analysis for GGOS, but any relevant topics are also welcome.
