Subject: IAG Symposium G01 ”Reference Frames” in Kobe: Abstract Deadline
Feb 8

Dear Colleagues,

As you may be aware, February 8 is the abstract deadline for the
IAG-IASPEI Joint Scientific Assembly to be held from
July 30 to August 4 in Kobe, Japan, with details given in the web site
http://www.iag-iaspei-2017.jp

Please consider submitting an abstract to IAG Symposium G01 ”Reference
Frames”, described below. Abstracts relating
to reference frames are welcome from all researchers irrespective of IAG
affiliation.

Note that in this four-year cycle of IAG´s structure, IAG Commission 1
on ”Reference Frames” is now addressing a very
broad variety of topics related to reference frames, including (for
example) relativistic geodesy, co-location using common
parameters in space, co-location using clocks and new sensors,
troposphere ties, next generation reference frames,
environmental loading effects, etc. We therefore would especially
encourage abstract submission from all of you working
with Commission 1, including the many subcommissions and their working
groups, joint study groups, and joint working groups.

Please find more information on IAG Commission 1 at
http://iag.geo.tuwien.ac.at/c1/

Thank you for considering your participation at Kobe in July/August!

(With apologies for cross-posting).

IAG Symposium G01 Reference Frames

Conveners:
Geoffrey Blewitt (University of Nevada, USA)
Johannes Böhm (Vienna Technical University, Austria)
Zuheir Altamimi (IGN, France)
Carine Bruyninx (Royal Observatory of Belgium, Belgium)


Description:
Reference systems and frames are of primary importance for Earth science
based research, satellite navigation as well as for
practical applications in geo-information. A precisely defined reference
frame is needed for an improved understanding of
the Earth´s rotation and its gravity field, sea level change with time,
tectonic plate motion and deformation, glacial isostatic
adjustment, geocenter motion, deformation due to Earthquakes, local
subsidence and other crustal displacements.
We invite presentations dealing with theoretical aspects and the
practical realization of reference frames, as well as their
application for research tasks like those mentioned above. Further
emphases of the session are on global terrestrial and
regional reference frames, celestial reference frames, and the
co-location of space geodetic techniques on ground and in space.
