Please find the marker coordinates at epoch 1997.0 (ITRF2000) which have been published in: Exertier, P., J. Nicolas, P. Berio, D. Coulot, P. Bonnefond, and O. Laurain, The Role of Laser Ranging for Calibrating Jason-1: The Corsica Tracking Campaign, Mar. Geod., Special Issue on Jason-1 Calibration/Validation, Part 2, Vol. 27, No. 1-2, 2004. AJACCIO 7848 10077M002 coordinates: 4696992.026 724001.507 4239671.542 (in meter) velocities: -0.014 +0.020 +0.011 (in meter/year) a station range bias of -7mm has been estimated from the 2002 campaign and should be equivalent for the 2005 one (in our convention a negative bias means that the system ranges too short). Excentricity (from marker to SRP) for 2005 campaign are given below: North [m]: 0.000 +- 0.001 East [m]: 0.000 +- 0.001 Up [m]: 1.8504 +- 0.001 but can be found at: http://ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/stations/select.cgi?order=by_site_name&site_code=AJAF&site_name=Ajaccio&pad_id=7848&tab_id=sitelog#3.%20%20%20General%20System%20Information Best regards ______________________________________________________________________ Pascal Bonnefond Observatoire de la Cote d´Azur - GEMINI - GRGS Avenue Nicolas Copernic F-06130 GRASSE France mailto:Pascal.Bonnefond@obs-azur.fr Phone : (33-4)/(04)-93-40-53-63 Fax : (33-4)/(04)-93-40-53-33 ______________________________________________________________________ EQUIPE GEODESIE ET MECANIQUE CELESTE http://www.obs-azur.fr/cerga/gmc ______________________________________________________________________ OCA | GEMINI http://www.obs-azur.fr | http://www.obs-azur.fr/gemini/ ______________________________________________________________________ -- *--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--* + Francis Pierron Tel : (33) [0]4 93 40 54 20 + + GEMINI fax : (33) [0]4 93 09 26 14 + + email : francis.pierron@obs-azur.fr + + + + Grasse Laser ranging operations + + Ultra mobile and permanent stations + + + + Observatoire de la Cote d´Azur + + Avenue Nicolas Copernic 06130 Grasse - France + +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ From: Francis Pierron ********************************************************************************
