Each configuration has : • FTP deposit server for data and analysis centers uploads, • FTP anonymous access to the GNSS observations and products, • Fully independent Internet links. • The infrastructure is common with the National GNSS permanent network and IDS data center activities. • Participation as GDC to the RTIGS Pilot Project IGS Workshop 2008, Miami Beach
