On behalf of the IDS Governing Board and Central Bureau, I would like to thank her very much for her major contribution to the creation and start of IDS and to wish her all the best for her new and quieter life. According to the IDS Terms of Reference (http://ids.cls.fr/html/organization/tor.html new Analysis Coordinator for the end of her term (2006 to mid 2007). The functions of the IDS Analysis Coordinator are defined in details in our Terms of Reference The Analysis Coordinator assists the Analysis Centers. The Analysis Coordinator monitors the Analysis Centers activities to ensure that the IDS objectives are carried out. Specific expectations include quality control, performance evaluation, and continued development of appropriate analysis standards. The Analysis Coordinator, with the assistance of the Central Bureau, is also responsible for the appropriate combination of the Analysis Centers products into a single set of products. Through the existing reciprocity agreement between IDS and IERS, the Analysis Coordinator serves as the DORIS Technique Center representative for IERS, and as such, subject to Governing Board approval, is a member of the IERS Directing Board (together with another person selected by the IDS Governing Board). In turn, the IERS Directing Board designates a representative to the IDS Governing Board. This arrangement ensures full cooperation between the two services. The Central Bureau will help the future Analysis Coordinator by performing the operational tasks (combination of individual Analysis Center results,...), as described also in the Terms of Reference. The CB supports the Analysis Coordinator in combining the various Analysis Centers products and providing him with all information necessary to validate the final combined products. The new IDS Analysis Coordinator will be elected by email directly by the Governing Board. The Central Bureau will gather a list of possible candidates to this function before January 6. If you are interested to become the next IDS Analysis Coordinator or want to suggest possible names for this position, please contact me before this deadline. Thanks in advance for your suggestions Laurent Soudarin IDS Central Bureau NB: the future Analysis Coordinator will serve until the end of Martine´s term but can be reelected for a full term after mid 2007. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr. Laurent SOUDARIN Space Systems Metrology COLLECTE LOCALISATION SATELLITES 8-10 rue Hermes Parc Technologique du Canal 31520 Ramonville Saint Agne FRANCE E-mail : Laurent.Soudarin @ cls.fr Tel : +33 (0)5 61 394 849 Fax : +33 (0)5 61 394 806 International DORIS Service ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From: slrmail@dgfi.badw.de ******************************************************************************** |
