The installation of a VLBI transmitter on Galileo satellites would allow observing satellites besides quasars with VLBI telescopes. Three additional Dilution of Precision (DOP) factors were introduced which are representing the sensitivity of a satellite observation towards the components of the satellite position in the local orbital. These factors were used for evaluating observations to […]

The need for stimulating global geodetic measurements with southern observatories served as a powerful motivation to launch the Southern Intensive (SI) program in 2020. The competitiveness of these SI sessions with routinely operated Intensive sessions has now been demonstrated in a paper published in Earth, Planets and Space.
