Towards an Integrated Global Geodetic Observing System (Iggos) Iag Section II Symposium Munich, October 5-9, 1998

The international symposium, "Towards an Integrated Global Geodetic Observing System", held in Munich 5-9 October 1998, analysed the state of the art of geodetic space techniques & looked into the possibility of the establishment of an integrated global observing system. Considering that most geodetic space techniques have reached or approached the one part per billion relative precision level, the question is what their joint & coordinated operation could offer to the study of the Earth system. The symposium was divided into four topics: (1) reference system & datum integration; (2) strength & weakness of space techniques; (3) upcoming gravity field satellite missions; (4) implications for Earth sciences.Rummel, Reinhardt is the author of 'Towards an Integrated Global Geodetic Observing System (Iggos) Iag Section II Symposium Munich, October 5-9, 1998', published 2000 under ISBN 9783540670797 and ISBN 3540670793.
