Subject: ITRF2000 SLR Coordinates

Dear Colleagues,

ITRF2000 SLR site coordinates and velocities are
available in ASCII at:

http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/ITRF/ITRF2000/results/ITRF2000_SLR.SSC

There are also available in SINEX, 3.7Mb, at:

ftp://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/pub/itrf/itrf2000/ITRF2000_SLR.SNX.gz



SLR coordinate solutions were used as the definition of the
ITRF2000 origin and its linear rate of change. In addition, the
ITRF2000 scale and its linear rate of change was defined by the
combination of SLR and VLBI coordinate solutions.

These ITRF2000 SLR coordinates along with some newer
SLR site positions are now also available from the ILRS Web site at:

http://ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov/ITRF2000.html

The ITRF2000 SLR solution does not include several of our stations,
but the page above is the complete set of SLR coordinates
supplemented with site log information and/or CSR estimated
positions.

Analysts centers and prediction centers are encouraged to adopt
ITRF2000 coordinates. If your analysis center provide regular
range and time bias reports and if you have updated your
coordinates, then please send an email to the Central Bureau at:

cb@ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov

Note: NERC and CRL have already adopted these coordinates
in their analyses and claim improved orbital fits
(Thank you).
