Book Synopsis The New Reference Edition of the IERS Conventions by : Gérard Pétit
Download or read book The New Reference Edition of the IERS Conventions written by Gérard Pétit and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 2919 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The IERS main products are the celestial and terrestrial reference frames, ICRF and ITRF, and the set of Earth orientation parameters to transform between them. Because several independent techniques are used to generate the ITRF, its quality strongly depends on using a consistent and complete set of models and procedures in the realization. The IERS Conventions are designed to provide these, and successive reference editions have been produced, the latest in 2003. However, since that time, the document has been continually updated in an electronic version available at http://tai.bipm.org/iers/convupdt/convupdt.html. Following an IERS workshop on Conventions, held in September 2007, it was decided to produce a new reference edition of the Conventions, which is now reaching completion. The paper will present the main features of the new reference edition, highlighting the most important changes vs. the Conventions (2003): Define classes of models and specify guidelines to choose which models should be applied for IERS core products; Implement the latest recommendations of scientific unions and the conclusions of the unions working groups and commissions; Describe the latest realizations of the ICRS and the ITRS and an updated model for the transformation between them; Describe updated conventional models for the gravitational field and for the effect of ocean tides; Describe updated or new conventional models for signal propagation in the troposphere and ionosphere; Describe new models for atmospheric tidal loading and the oceanic pole tide loading.
Book Synopsis Reference Frames for Applications in Geosciences by : Zuheir Altamimi
Download or read book Reference Frames for Applications in Geosciences written by Zuheir Altamimi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reference systems and frames are of primary importance for many Earth science applications, satellite navigation as well as for practical applications in geo-information. A precisely defined reference frame is needed for the quantification of, e.g. Earth rotation and its gravity field, global and regional sea level variation, tectonic motion and deformation, post-glacial rebound, geocenter motion, large scale deformation due to Earthquakes, local subsidence and other ruptures and crustal dislocations. All of these important scientific applications fundamentally depend on a truly global reference system that only space geodesy can realize. This volume details the proceedigns of the IAG Symposium REFAG2010 (Marne la Vallée, France, October 4-8, 2010) The primary scope of REFAG2010 was to address today’s achievements on theoretical concepts of reference systems and their practical implementations by individual space geodetic techniques and their combinations, underlying limiting factors, systematic errors and novel approaches for future improvements.

Book Synopsis Recent and Anticipated Changes to the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) Conventions by : Brian James Luzum
Download or read book Recent and Anticipated Changes to the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) Conventions written by Brian James Luzum and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS) Conventions provides the international standard for models and constants related to the transformation between the terrestrial and the celestial reference frames. These include . adopted values of physical constants, the definitions and realizations of terrestrial, celestial, and dynamical reference systems, the transformation between frames, geopotential model, models for the displacement of reference points, model for the tidal variation in the Earth's rotation, tropospheric models, and relativistic models. As these models provide the link between terrestrial, celestial, and dynamical reference frames, they can be a crucial component of navigation and targeting. The IERS Conventions Center is preparing to release a new version of the IERS Conventions with an anticipated publication date of 2009.

Book Synopsis Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy by : Andre HECK
Download or read book Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy written by Andre HECK and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone who doubts that astronomy is enjoying a golden age has only to browse the pages of Organizations and Strategies in Astronomy, Vol. 5. Our golden age is defined not only by the enormity of new discoveries of dark energy, dark matter, extra-solar planets, and the evolution of Mars, but also by the breadth, diversity, and creativity within our community. This volume records our history, in a period of such rapid change and growth that individual astronomers are hard-pressed to keep abreast of their own fields and neighborhoods, much less of developments world-wide. Since the 1950's, changes in the landscape of astronomy are manifold. We have witnessed two epochs of big telescope construction, the 4-meter class telescopes of the '60s and '70s and the 8-to lO-meter class telescopes of the '90s, continuing through today. We accomplished the transition from photographic to digital data, and we continue to improve the size and sen sitivity of astronomical detectors. We have witnessed the flowering of radio astronomy and the opening of the full electromagnetic spectrum through space astronomy. We have seen the growth of national and international astronomy facilities, and a dramatic broadening of the accessibility of data, both through observing facilities available through open competition based on scientific merit and through deep, rich archives of data.

Download or read book GPS written by Guochang Xu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-07-29 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reference and handbook describes theory, algorithms and applications of the Global Positioning System (GPS/Glonass/Galileo/Compass). It is primarily based on source-code descriptions of the KSGsoft program developed at the GFZ in Potsdam. The theory and algorithms are extended and verified for a new development of a multi-functional GPS/Galileo software. Besides the concepts such as the unified GPS data processing method, the diagonalisation algorithm, the adaptive Kalman filter, the general ambiguity search criteria, and the algebraic solution of variation equation reported in the first edition, the equivalence theorem of the GPS algorithms, the independent parameterisation method, and the alternative solar radiation model reported in the second edition, the modernisation of the GNSS system, the new development of the theory and algorithms, and research in broad applications are supplemented in this new edition. Mathematically rigorous, the book begins with the introduction, the basics of coordinate and time systems and satellite orbits, as well as GPS observables, and deals with topics such as physical influences, observation equations and their parameterisation, adjustment and filtering, ambiguity resolution, software development and data processing and the determination of perturbed orbits.
