DORIS Days meeting, Toulouse, France, 2-3 May 2000

The DORIS days have been organised by CNES in partnership with the IGN, CLS, and GRGS and with the sponsorship of the INSU, the IERS and the CSTG (IAG commission VIII).
The purpose of these days is to promote exchanges between different designers, operators and users of the DORIS system by presenting the results obtained since the system was placed in orbit. These results concern precise orbit determination and location with their respective applications, as well as all other spheres in which DORIS applications are used (gravitational field, ionosphere, troposphere...).

This second version of these DORIS days were in particular devoted to the start-up of the DORIS Pilot Experiment for the purpose of creating an International DORIS Service and of presenting the technological changes which have been made to the system (JASON, ENVISAT and SPOT5 missions, 3rd generation beacons).
