At the upcoming laser workshop in Matera, the Central Bureau will provide a site log status report during the general ILRS meeting. One requirement of being an ILRS station member is to complete and maintain your site information logs so please try and complete your site logs by the deadline. HISTORY: The site log was designed by the Networking and Engineering Working Group under the leadership of Werner Gurtner. The ILRS site log was modeled from the IGS site log. The site logs contain general and specific information for each site that will serve many different customers. This information in the logs include but is not limited to site identifiers, site contact information, system eccentricities, approximate station coordinates, hardware and software configuration information, SLR/LLR system capabilities, collocated space geodetic systems, and survey ties. PROCEDURE/AVAILIBILITY: The completed site logs are emailed to the Central Bureau. After receipt, the Central Bureau and the Networks and Engineering Working Group review each log for data format and data integrity. Once the site log has passed the format and data integrity checks, the site log is placed on the CDDIS at: ftp://cddisa.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/reports/slrlog/ The log file filenaming convention is contained within the site log procedures located at: http://ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov/site_log_procedure.html Also, I will like to bring your attention to the Site Identification Page on the ILRS at: http://ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov/sod_domes.html This page contains all the different site identifiers (pad id, 4 letter codes, location names, SODs, DOMES) used within our community. The hyperlinks associated with the 4 letter codes are linked to the corresponding site log. If the 4 letter code has no hyperlink, then the site log either has not been received or additional information is being sought from the site. Once site logs are updated, the latest version is maintained in the directory mentioned above and the old site log is moved to the old site directory at: ftp://cddisa.gsfc.nasa.gov/pub/reports/slrlog/oldlog/ This procedure ensures archival of all versions of any site log. The Networks and Engineering Working Group will be developing site log search capabilities to enable finding common information from all systems (e.g. you will be able to search to determine which systems are using APD detectors). STATUS: Thirteen logs have been received (Zimmerwald, Greenbelt, Borowiec, Mt. Stromlo, Herstmonceux, Graz, Shanghai, Potsdam, Tahiti, Hartebeesthoek, Wettzell, Changchun, McDonald). Ten of the 13 logs have passed the format and data integrity checks. Three (Tahiti, Shanghai, and Potsdam) of the 13 site logs are pending receipt of additional information.
