Dear colleagues,
The IGS will soon adopt a new reference frame, called IGS14, as the basis of its
products. IGS14 is closely related to ITRF2014, released in January 2016. An
updated set of satellite and ground antenna calibrations, igs14.atx, will also
become effective at the same time and should be used together with IGS14. The
IGS intends to switch from IGS08/igs08.atx to IGS14/igs14.atx starting with
products of GPS week 1934 (29 January 2017). The IGS08/igs08.atx framework has
been in effect since GPS week 1632 (17 April 2011) and was also used for the
second IGS reprocessing campaign (repro2) back to 1994.
The following files can already be downloaded from either
ftp://igs-rf.ign.fr/pub/IGS14 or ftp://igs-rf.ensg.eu/pub/IGS14:
- IGS14.snx : IGS14 SINEX file
- IGS14.ssc : IGS14 SINEX file without covariance matrix
- IGS14.png : map of the full IGS14 network
- psd_IGS14.snx : post-seismic deformation models to be used with
IGS14
- soln_IGS14.snx : discontinuity list to be used with IGS14
- IGS14_core.txt : list of IGS14 core stations
- IGS14_core.png : map of the IGS14 core network
- igs14_1926.atx : latest version of igs14.atx (will be updated, if
needed)
- ITRF2014_to_IGS14.txt : position offsets applied to the ITRF2014
coordinates of IGS14 stations affected by ground
antenna calibration updates
- igs08_to_igs14_offsets.txt : position offsets estimated for all IGS stations
affected by ground antenna calibration updates
- lat_models.txt : latitude-dependent models of position offsets
expected from ground antenna calibration updates
