and Dr John Dawson
[abstract] [paper] [handouts]

Session Outline: The mathematical relationship between the ITRF and regional or national reference frames and how this is done will be described using EUREF and APREF as case studies. Topics covered include the definition, realisations, GNSS CORS infrastructure and campaigns, transformations, and monitoring of such regional reference frames.

and Mr Nic Donnelly
[abstract] [paper] [handouts]

Session Outline: Case studies from countries describing how their geodetic datum has been realised in relationship to a regional reference frame or ITRF and any local problems and issues. It also includes the discussion of issues for an intra-plate country as opposed to one across a plate boundary.

Session 2.1: IGS Services and Other Initiatives

Presenter – Ms Ruth Neilan
[abstract] [paper] [handouts]

Session Outline: Overview on how these services and other initiatives contribute to global reference systems; regional and national reference systems; organisational benefits; and how do agencies participate i.e. requirements.

10:30–11:00
Sala Consiglio, Cassa Geometri
Session 2.2: Gravity and WHS

Presenter – Dr Dan Roman
[abstract] [paper] [handouts]

Session Outline: Gravity and the WHS: The gravity field is directly related to the structure of the Earth and how its mass is distributed. Every piece of mass creates a potential of gravity (geopotential) that drops off with distance. The cumulative effect of all these produces the Earth's gravity field. This session will focus on the relationship between various aspects of the Earth's gravity field such as the geoid, geopotentials, gravity, deflections of the vertical, and physical heights (e.g., above mean sea level). It covers different means of observing the gravity field and how they are combined to produce models for height determination both at global scales, such as the World Height System, and locally for National Vertical Datums.
