The compatibility of DORIS with VGOS

The compatibility of DORIS with VGOS The most precise global geodetic reference frame, the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF), is based on four space geodesy techniques: Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) and the Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite (DORIS) System. All four techniques complement

Assessing The Consistency Of The Conventional Reference Frames (Terrestrial And Celestial) And Their Impact On Estimated EOP Using VLBI-Based Data

Assessing The Consistency Of The Conventional Reference Frames (Terrestrial And Celestial) And Their Impact On Estimated EOP Using VLBI-Based Data The conventional International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) is based on the combination of solutions from several space geodetic techniques, including observations until the end of 2020, and incorporates updated data and models. In contrast, the
