Reference Frames :co-location • At sites where the technique are co-located (<300 metres apart) a millimetre level connection is measured using classical geodetic techniques • This provides the link between the measurement techniques • In Australia GA routinely undertakes these surveys at Tidbinbilla, Yarragadee, Hobart, Mount Stromlo DORIS GPS VLBI SLR

Internal vs external accuracy For X, Y, Z components – external accuracy looks more then internal Baseline lengths are sensitive to selection of reference radio sources Geoscience Australia 20 June 2012
Internal vs external accuracy May be caused by uncertainty of the reference radio sources in the southern hemisphere Rotation of the whole Australian subnetwork due to astrometric instability of the reference sources, or just poor astrometric positions Geoscience Australia 20 June 2012
