Site Information
- The Station Table provides identifiers which have been assigned to ILRS stations. These include:
- 4 digit CDP monument/pad ID number or system reference point
- 4 character code (typically ends in an L for Laser)
- Site Location Name and Country
- Site Occupation Designators (SODs), maintained by the CDDIS
- Directory of MERIT Sites (DOMES numbers), maintained by the IERS
- ILRS Site and System Information Forms (Site Logs)
Additional detail available for specific stations includes:
- SLR station Coordinates (SLRF2020, Version 2026.02.05)
- SLR System Eccentricities (Up, North, East and X, Y, Z), maintained by the ILRS CB and by the CDDIS
- SLR System Configuration Files, maintained by the ILRS systems
- Satellite-Dependent System Configuration and Center of Mass (CoM) correction files
- Data Corrections (pre-1999, post-1999), maintained by the ILRS CB
- Geodetic Survey Reports
- International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF)
Definitions:
- SOD is an eight digit code to uniquely describe an occupation of a geodetic monument.
- DOMES is a nine character code to unambiguously identify a geodetic instrument reference point and/or geodetic marker
- MERIT is Monitoring of Earth Rotation and Intercomparison of Techniques campaign from the early 1980s
- SINEX file is a System Independent data Exchange format
- System eccentricities are the offsets from the geodetic monument (if one exists) to the optical reference point.
