************************************************************************ IERS Message No. 320 January 03, 2017 ************************************************************************ ITRF session at EGU 2017 Dear Colleagues, The next General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union will be held in Vienna, Austria, 23 - 28 April 2017. We draw your attention in particular to the session: "G2.2 The ITRF: Elaboration, Usage and Applications" Please consider submitting an abstract to this session. The goal of this session is to provide a forum to discuss reference systems theory, realization and applications in geosciences and society, with a special emphasis on the scientific applications of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF), and namely the ITRF2014. Participants can discuss concerns not only related to the contributing technique services, but also all ITRF uses, ranging from local, regional to global applications. Contributions are sought from the individual technique services and various ITRF users, covering the complete range of topics, such as data analysis, parameter estimation and correction models. Of special interest is the assessment of the impact of non-linear station motions, e.g. periodic signals and post-seismic deformations. Contributions focusing on identifying and mitigating technique systematic errors are most welcome, which will hopefully help improve the future ITRF solutions. You can use the following link to submit an abstract: http://meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU2017/sessionprogramme and choose Geodesy (G), then G2 and G2.2 Deadline to submit abstracts: 11 January 2017 at 13:00 CET (12:00 UTC) Best regards Zuheir Altamimi, on behalf of the conveners of session G2.2 ************************************************************************ IERS Messages are edited and distributed by the IERS Central Bureau.
