Recommendations for actions by the DORIS Pilot Experiment Steering Committee
Evolution of the DORIS system - Finalize the assessment of recent improvements in the DORIS system - What future developments to recommend? Information on data - Distributed observational data: MOE-based preprocessing vs present POE-based preprocessing - Deliver ENVISAT data at the IDS Data Centers - Check/extend basic and analysis info available, e.g. . local ties between successive beacons in the same site, . agreed list of breaks in time series of station coordinates, . catalogue of corrupted data that should not be used in data analyses. Priviledged topics for analysis - Further discuss the treatment of Jason's USO behaviour - Further develop TRF+ EOP combination and unification - Support ESOC's orbit comparison effort ( Spot satellites) - Initiate 'geocenter'/TRF origin comparison and unification effort - Encourage more Analysis Centers Inter-technique cooperations - Establish a list of the most reliable DORIS stations (Core network) - Make more use of DORIS- SLR ground & space colocations - Establish contacts with ILRS, IVS, IGS about network evolutions - Consider colocations with SLR and VLBI as an important criterion in managing the evolution of the IDS network
