The venue is the ”Venice Convention, Centre Palazzo del Casino” on the island of Lido, facing the city of Venice. The abstract deadline is May 16, 2012 and abstracts are submitted through the IDS workshop website: http://ids-doris.org/abstract-submission-form.html Information about the meeting venue, logistical information, and details about the concurrent ESA conference and subsequent OSTST meeting are available at the URL: http://www.altimetry2012.org The IDS workshop will provide a forum to review the progress in the DORIS technique and provide perspectives for the contributions of DORIS to GGOS. Topics that are of particular interest are: * the status of analyses by the DORIS analysis centers, * the contribution of new DORIS satellites (including Jason-2, Cryosat-2, SARAL/Altika), * and the progress in DORIS analyses since the construction of the IDS combination to ITRF2008. We also welcome papers that describe the progress of the activities pertaining to the DORIS operational combination. POD modelling issues related to radiation pressure, atmospheric drag, geocenter motion model, tropospheric delay and mapping functions, and phase center position errors, affect the quality of the DORIS products. Papers that review progress in these areas will be especially welcome. DORIS being a dual-frequency radio technique, provides a mean to sound the ionosphere, we welcome papers that use or compare the DORIS measurements with models or to calibrate the performance of satellite radar altimeters or make other uses of these ionosphere data. Finally the DORIS workshop will provide a forum to discuss IDS Combined products and multi-technique (SLR, GPS, VLBI) combinations involving DORIS data, and synergies and comparisons of DORIS products with those of other techniques. In the context of GGOS, the design of a next generation station including DORIS and all the geodetic techniques, and how they may all successfully co-habitate at a single geodetic site is also an appropriate topic for this workshop. Participation: --------------- IDS contributors are invited to submit a presentation (oral or poster) to the IDS workshop for presenting results in relation with topics such as: * System: satellites, network, system improvements, new data format, future missions * IDS: organization, analysis coordination, analysis centers, data centers and data flow * Geodesy, Reference frame, Earth´s rotation * Precise Orbit Determination * Geophysics, atmospheric sciences (troposphere and ionosphere) * New DORIS applications & products The Scientific Committee will draw up a programme and an agenda at a later stage, according to the submitted abstracts. IDS Scientific Committee: Frank G. Lemoine (chair), Pascale Ferrage, Michiel Otten, Laurent Soudarin, John Ries, Pascal Willis. Please submit IDS workshop abstracts by 16 May 2012 at the URL: http://ids-doris.org/abstract-submission-form.html More information about IDS and DORIS is available on the IDS web site: http://ids-doris.org Please contact the IDS Central Bureau if you have any questions: email: ids.central.bureau@ids-doris.org ******************************************************************************** |
