Dear colleagues

To help in the examination of the relative merits of the DORIS sites
and stations in the long term, you may find it useful to consider a
set of global analyses that were prepared by the IDS Analysis
Coordination team in 2005. They are available through URL

                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004.html

They include plots of weekly residuals at
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/graphs/
with explanation at
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/graphs_readme.html

and stability analyses at
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/lcawd12.a.txt
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/ignwd05.a.txt
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/inawd03.a.txt

Two columns may be of special interest in this discussion:
- %Ms giving the percentage of missing weeks in the series
- Stb ind (last column) giving the station stability index. Small
stability indices are for stable stations.

The explanation of these tables is at
                  http://lareg.ensg.ign.fr/IDS/ITRF2004/core_net_readme.pdf

Finally, I send a copy of this message to ids.analysis.forum@cls.fr
which I believe was set up exactly for this type of discussion.

Best regards
Martine Feissel-Vernier
IDS Analysis Coordinator, Feb 2002-Oct 2005
