Background: The primary purpose of the EUREF Permanent Network is to provide access to the European Terrestrial Reference System 89 (ETRS89) which is the standard precise GNSS coordinate system throughout Europe.
To maintain the ETRS89, ROB computes the EUREF Reference Frame product which is one of the core products of EUREF, the IAG (International Association of Geodesy) Reference Frame sub-commission for Europe. It consists of the precise multi-year positions and velocities of the EPN stations expressed in the latest ITRS/ETRS89 realization.
Input: EPN daily combined SINEX files provided by WUT-EUREF
Updated: each 15 weeks
Methodology: Computed with the CATREF software (Altamimi et al., 2007) and expressed in the IGS 14 frame using minimal constraints. Outliers have been eliminated and jumps in the position time series have been accounted for.
More details: from EPN Central Bureau at epncb.oma.be and in the following report
This service allows users to download GNSS velocities generated by the ROB-EUREF analysis center.
The data can be filtered using search parameters such as coordinates and dates.
Reference Frame and Output Components
Velocities are provided with respect to a no-net-rotation global terrestrial reference frame. They are returned in the local components East (E), North (N), and Up (U), or alternatively in Cartesian components (X, Y, Z), together with the associated uncertainties:
