| Content: | ******************************************************************************** SLR Electronic Mail 1999-06-24 08:52:00 UTC Message No. 354 ******************************************************************************** Author: Mike Pearlman Subject: Governing Board Vote on Four Items for Dear Colleague: Four items originally presented at the ILRS General Meeting at the Hague have now received Governing Board approval. They are presented here as they appear on Page 9 of the meeting notes. The approved actions include: 1. Adopt the ERS/D-PAF format for notification of satellite maneuvers; 2. Adopt the following official names for ILRS formats and products: ILRS NP for Normal Point formats and data (formerly ”CSTG ONP”) ILRS FR for Full-Rate formats and data (formerly ”MERIT-II Full-Rate”); 3. Change the current description of the ILRS FR format to make the contents of certain fields in the ILRS FR files consistent with ILRS NP conventions: Data prepared with the new conventions must contain ´3´ in Byte 129 (Format Revision Number Indicator). (This makes an implementation date less critical.) Byte 44 Epoch Time Scale Ind UTC(GPS) is to be code 4 Bytes 65-68 Wavelength Same as Bern 1995 field: see ILRS NP bytes 21-24 Bytes 126-128 Calibration & Configuration Amend to agree with ILRS Indicators NP bytes 45-47 4. Charter the Signal Processing Ad Hoc Working Group as structured by the Data Formats and Procedures Working Group. Best regards, Mike Pearlman Secretary, ILRS Central Bureau Dr. Michael R.
