Permanent GPS network (AGNES):
Permanent GPS network (AGNES) High performance: Average of data availability: > 99 % Contribution to ECGN: Collocation of various geodetic observations (see paper by E. Brockmann)
Fundamental station Zimmerwald Replacement of receivers (Trimble 4000SSI → 4700) resulted in signifi- cantly improved performance of RTK positioning (faster data output)
New station software (GPS-Base Vers. 2.10)
Real time positioning service „swipos“:
Real time positioning service „swipos“ International co-operation “D-A-CH”: Seamless positioning service along the national borders to Germany and Austria due to mutual integration of stations of the real-time networks: D: SAPOS, A: APOS and CH: swipos
Data exchange between the control centers: SAPOS (BW) in Karlsruhe, SAPOS (BAY) in Munich, APOS in Vienna and swipos in Wabern.
Delivery of RTCM data of station Zimmerwald to EUREF-IP over Internet
Development of a monitoring device for assessing VRS/RTK
