RAEGE: the Spanish-Portuguese Infrastructure of Geodetic Stations

This contribution will show the current status of the joint Spanish-Portuguese infrastructure for Space Geodesy called RAEGE, which stands for Red Atlántica de Estaciones Geodinámicas y Espaciales. This infrastructure will consist of four space geodesy stations, two in Spain (Yebes and Gran Canaria) and two in Portugal (Santa Maria and Flores islands, Açores archipelago). Each …

VLBI-Based Assessment Of The Consistency Of The Conventional EOP Series And The Terrestrial Reference Frames

The Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG) envisages stringent accuracy goals for the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) realization in terms of position (1 mm) and velocity (0.1 mm/year). These requirements entail that the Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP) should be estimated with similar accuracy. The ITRF is based on …
