Positions and Velocities Change! CORS Multiyear soln. Plate fixed
Reference Frame Definitions • • ITRF frame (global) multi-technique—vlbi, slr, doris, gnss IGS frame (global) GNSS only NAD frame (plate fixed) related to ITRF/IGS Critical to pay attention to frame tags and epoch dates and antenna calibration values Frame Name Epoch Antenna PCV* Data Duration ITRF 2000 1997. 00 Rel 1994. 0 -2002. 0 ITRF 00 (NGS’s soln) 1997. 00 Rel NGS 1994. 0 -present NAD 83(CORS 96, MARP 00, PACP 00) 2002. 00 Rel NGS 1994. 0 -present IGS 08 2005. 00 Abs IGS 08 1997. 0 -2009. 5 IGS 08 (NGS’s soln) 2005. 00 Abs IGS 08 1994. 0 -2011. 3 (ongoing) NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) 2010. 00 Abs IGS 08 1994. 0 -2011. 3 (ongoing) *PCV – phase center value; Abs-Absolute, Rel-Relative
Reference Frames Used • Basis is global frame inherited from ITRF 2008 but not the same as ITRF 2008 – Name: IGS 08 – Epoch date: 2005. 00 (same as ITRF 2008, IGS 08) – NGS has more discontinuities and weekly solutions than ITRF 2008; and has applied IGS 05_ATX -> IGS 08_ATX corrections to be consistent with IGS 08 • Related to ITRF, but plate fixed (NAD 83) – Name: NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) – Epoch date: 2010. 00 – NAD 83(CORS 96, MARP 00, PACP 00) to NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) identity transformation (i. e. same axes) – NAD 83(2011) axes origin different (~2 m) from ITRF/IGS 08 (expect reconciliation ~2022)
Reference Frames Used • NAD 83(2011) epoch 2010. 00 – “ 2011” is datum tag i. e. year adjustment complete – “ 2010. 00” is “epoch date” (January 1, 2010) • Date associated with coordinates of control station – Frame fixed to North American tectonic plate • Includes California, Alaska, Puerto Rico, and US Virgin Islands • NAD 83(PA 11) epoch 2010. 00 – Frame fixed to Pacific tectonic plate (Hawaii and American Samoa, and other islands) • NAD 83(MA 11) epoch 2010. 00 – Frame fixed to Mariana tectonic plate (Guam and CNMI)
Reference Frames and Orbits • • IGS 08 positions are not equal to ITRF 2008 (diff ant. calib. ) ITRF 2008 is multi-technique solution VLBI, SLR, DORIS, GPS IGS 08 is a GPS only solution ITRF 2008 GPS’s component was processed using IGS 05 absolute antenna calibrations • To create IGS 08 IGS took the ITRF 2008 positions and applied a station specific correction to account for differences between IGS 05 and IGS 08 absolute antenna calibrations. Corrections of up to 5 cm • All IGS orbit products in NGS online storage from 1994 -Jan-01 to 2011 -Apr-16 are aligned to IGS 05 and then to IGS 08. For most non-research applications the orbits can be mixed
Tying CORS to Global Frame • global tracking network used for estimating: Global – GPS satellite orbits (15 -min intervals) – terrestrial framework – Earth Orientation (EOPs) – global station positions (weekly averages) • CORS tied to global framework via single baselines radiating from global stations – minimizes frame distortions from local effects in dense regional networks Global+CORS
CORS IGS 08 Velocity Field
What is the new NAD 83? • Same datum, so no transformation between NAD 83(CORS 96, MARP 00, PACP 00) epoch 2002. 00 and NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) epoch 2010. 00 – NAD 83 (2011, MA 11, PA 11) velocities should be used to move positions through time • To assess differences in frames, need to compare positions at same epoch date (2002. 00). – Will do this by taking new positions at CORS at 2010. 00 and using NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) velocities to move to 2002. 00
Changes in Horizontal NAD 83 Positions NAD 83(2011) epoch 2002. 00 – NAD 83(CORS 96) epoch 2002. 00 • Avg. shifts: E = -0. 14 1. 04 (ME -0. 10) cm N = 0. 19 0. 94 (ME 0. 20) cm – prescribing velocities using numerical models (i. e. HTDP) – smaller random part probably caused by change to absolute antenna calibrations
Changes in Vertical NAD 83 Positions NAD 83(2011) epoch 2002. 0 – NAD 83(CORS 96) epoch 2002. 0 • avg. shift: U = 0. 80 1. 89 (ME -0. 70) cm – random part mostly caused by switch to absolute antenna calibrations – shifts also caused by assuming Vu = 0 in NAD 83(CORS 96)
The NAD 83 datum is the same. So what are the shifts caused by changing reference epoch to 2010? • Previous 2 slides show consequences of new realization: – approx. 1 -2 mm avg. horiz. shift – less than 1 cm avg. vert. shift • BUT reference epoch has changed from 2002. 00 to 2010. 00 – velocities are therefore critical • Let’s compare NAD 83(CORS 96) positions @ 2002. 00 to NAD 83(2011) positions @ 2010. 00 – differences dominated by effects of crustal motion, i. e. , NAD 83 velocities are non-zero – e. g. 2 mm/yr velocity after 8 years = 1. 6 cm change in position
Changes in Horizontal NAD 83 Positions Different Epochs NAD 83(2011) epoch 2010. 0 – NAD 83(CORS 96) epoch 2002. 0 • Avg. shifts: E = 0. 05 5. 25 (ME -0. 12) cm N = 2. 12 6. 08 (ME 0. 00) cm – combination of position and velocity differences – due mostly to updated velocities (including up to 8 more years of data) WA+OR 4. 4 E, 5 N cm CA+NV 10. 8 E, 14. 4 N cm ID+MT+ND +SD+WY 1. 7 E, 0. 5 N cm UT+CO+ NM+AZ 0. 5 E, 1. 0 N cm East 1. 4 E, -0. 2 N cm
Changes in Vertical NAD 83 Positions Different Epochs NAD 83(2011) epoch 2010. 0 – NAD 83(CORS 96) epoch 2002. 0 • Avg. shifts: U = -0. 66 2. 24 (ME -0. 80) cm – combination of position and velocity differences from additional data, tectonics – assuming vertical velocity ≈ 0. 00 in NAD 83(CORS 96)
Changes with New Frames • Change from relative to IGS 08 absolute antenna phase center values (PCV) • The global frame (IGS 08) pos/vel are aligned to full global frame >100 sites • Change in epoch from 2002. 00 to 2010. 00 in NAD 83(2011/MA 11/PA 11) • Coordinates change by ~1. 5 cm horizontal ~1 cm vertical in Easter USA • No longer support coordinates in ITRF 00 or NAD 83 (CORS 96, MARP 00, PACP 00) • What amount of change/tolerance are permitted? – No change 2 cm horizontal, 4 cm vertical
Changes with New Frames CORS coordinates clearly divided • >2. 5 yrs of data with positions and velocities from stacked solution (i. e. computed). Valid for “fixed” coordinates. • <2. 5 yrs of data positions from stacked solution, but velocities via HTDP (i. e. modeled). • Users encouraged not to use CORS with modeled velocities, until computed vels. are avail. (may take up to 3 yrs). Important if holding coordinates fixed. • CORS with unexplained coordinates changes marked as “questionable” until resolved/stable.

Growth of CORS Network 1994 (<10) 2006 (~900) 1997 (~150) 2000 (~300) 2009 (~1300) 2003 (~600) 2012 (~1900)
With Growth Comes Change • Growth is often thought of as good • Too much “good” can be bad! • Emphasis in recent years has been on station quality, have removed a number of poor quality stations. • In the next year will be reviewing station quality against network average, per guidelines issued in 2006 • Update to guidelines forthcoming including spacing requirements
Inclusion of GNSS in CORS Network Increasing upgrade from GPS only to GNSS equipment • By the of this fiscal year GNSS observations will be made available through the CORS online storage
Summary • All NGS Products and Services are in consistent frames in 2012: – IGS 08 epoch 2005. 00 – NAD 83(2011, MA 11, PA 11) epoch 2010. 00 – Geoid 12 A • Users must use appropriate antenna calibrations with particular reference frames • QC of CORS stations will increase. Updated guidelines forthcoming • GNSS data distribution by end of the year • Reprocessing of CORS should begin within the next year. Orbits start in January 2013.
Questions/Comments • We recognize that NGS and the public want CORS to be the primary access to the NSRS, but accuracy and constancy are not always possible. • We are keen to hear your comments/concerns • Check: geodesy. noaa. gov/CORS/news. shtml geodesy. noaa. gov/CORS Choose Data Products giovanni. sella@noaa. gov
