Observational programs AuScope supported operations of VLBI network in Australia and New Zealand – 140 session in 2013/2014 and 200 sessions in 2014/2015 For IVS programs (R1, R4, astrometry, etc) as well as domestic (Austral) Three AuScope telescopes, two South Africa telescopes (Hartrao and Hart15M) and one New Zealand (Warkworth) Geoscience Australia 06 March 2014

Data analysis • CALC/SOLVE – piece-wise linear function for the stochastic parameters • OCCAM 6.3 – least squares collocation method • Using full variance-covariance matrix • Mutual correlation between wet troposphere delays and hydrogen maser variations O.

Velocityestimates 06 March 2014
Conclusion • Tectonic motion of AuScope and Warkworth stations was estimated using two independent software; • Seasonal variations in station components and baseline lengths were detected (not harmonic!); • Kath12M shows too large motion with respect to Hobart12 and Yarra12M (5-7 mm/year) – independent on software! • More data are to be collected to fix the issues; • No apparent difference between IVS-R1, R4 and Austral data Geoscience Australia 06 March 2014
Plan • Operations funds are secure until June, 2015; • New search for money will start in 2014; • Some upgrade is expected (check Jim Lovell et all poster) Geoscience Australia 06 March 2014
