– Modified Mean Pole model of IERS MP series
• SLR network changes: – new sites, earthquakes near old sites à new coordinates & velociOes
• StaOon data quality monitoring & systemaOc error modeling
• ITRF2013 reanalysis delivery to ITRS/IGN: October 24, 2014
2 Erricos C. Pavlis 10/28/2014 19th ILW 2014, Annapolis, MD, USA
ILRS Reanalysis Schedule
• First planning meeOng of the ILRS AWG held in Potsdam, Germany, September 2013
• Agreed to implement and validate several new models before the reanalysis
• Considerable Ome and effort required from each AC / CC for the implementaOon of the models
• The reanalysis covers the period 1983 (as with ITRF2008), up to the end of 2013.
3 Erricos C. Pavlis 10/28/2014 19th ILW 2014, Annapolis, MD, USA
Model Improvement Areas
• Update of the a priori TRF (SLRF2008) to include new sites and beber posiOon/velocity esOmates for tectonically acOve regions
• New Ome-‐dependent target signature model for LAGEOS and ETALON satellites (“COM offset”)
• New staOc gravitaOonal model and temporal variaOons for the 2nd degree/order terms
• Improved version of the IERS Mean Pole descripOon (avoiding the fixed polynomial in the 2010 ConvenOons)
• Improved systemaOc error handling, extended to all sites and all of the period covered by the data
4 Erricos C. Pavlis 10/28/2014 19th ILW 2014, Annapolis, MD, USA
A priori TRF (SLRF2008)
• A final version of SLRF2008 (ILRS version/extension of ITRF2008) is used as the starOng posiOons and velociOes of our tracking sites for the re-‐analysis
– ASI, DGFI and JCET developed, evaluated and validated tailored staOon soluOons for about a dozen sites:
• some that suffered major earthquakes and,
• some that joined the network aher the development of ITRF2008 and are not present in it.

Target Signature Modeling
• In 2013 ILRS adopted a new model to account for the opOcal response of each target to different systems and modes of operaOon: the so-‐called “CoM offset”
– It depends on: • The geometric/opOcal properOes of the tracked s/c LRA • The ranging system installed at each site, • The raw data preprocessing scheme, and • The mode of operaOon of the system (single/few/mulO photon)
• The applicaOon of the “CoM” correcOon is now +me-‐dependent and applied by s/w using look-‐up tables that need frequent updates for new sites, etc.

“Bias”
GravitaOonal Modeling
• New staOc gravitaOonal model adopted by all ACs: – GGM05S from the GRACE project
• A consistent set of addiOonal terms with significant temporal variaOon, derived from SLR tracking of mulOple geodeOc satellites by Minkang Cheng (CSR/UT), using GGM05S as the background staOc part and using the same standards :
– C(2,0) & C/S(2,1) from CSR's 15d series, interpolated/evaluated at mid-‐arc epoch of our 15d arcs (1983 -‐ 1992) and our 7d arcs (1993 – 2013)
– The nominal zonal terms' values for degree 3-‐6 for our use come from CSR's GGM05S, their linear rates however come from Cheng et al., 1997

Mean Pole Model
• The IERS ConvenOons have a Mean Pole model in the form of a polynomial that was fit to one release of the official IERS Mean Pole (MP) series (ca. 2010)
• Changes (ca. 2005) in the nearly linear MP moOon require that we are flexible and adapt the “model” to such changes, since extrapolaOon from a fixed polynomial fit is inadequate
• A daily series of the MP coordinates and their rates based on the interpolated/extrapolated IERS MP series was adopted, instead of the fixed polynomial version in the IERS 2010 ConvenOons

Mean Pole Differences: IERS Series 2010 vs 2014
From Daniel Gambis
StaOon SystemaOc Error Modeling
• The ILRS iniOated a thorough invesOgaOon of the staOon-‐dependent systemaOc errors since the development of ITRF2008, leading to significant improvement and consistency of the product we deliver to ITRS
• Since several years we maintain a Ome series of weekly-‐averaged systemaOc error esOmates for all acOve sites (since 1993), which is used to noOfy staOons of sudden changes with respect to the adopted reference frame
• StarOng late last year, the ILRS replaced the outdate way the staOons reported changes to the community with a more efficient and simple way, readily accessible to users: the StaOon History Change records (archived at the DCs)

Current Results for 1993-‐2013
• The ILRS generates a single combined product for the ITRS and a back-‐up combinaOon as an internal check
• The back-‐up combinaOon product is generated using independent s/w and a different approach, based on the deconstrained normal equaOons and a variance component esOmaOon for the relaOve weight esOmaOon between the individual AC contribuOons
• The two series that cover the main period 1993-‐2013 indicate an agreement below their formal error esOmates
• The result of the implemented improvements is beber seen when comparing the Ome series from individual ACs

Summary
• The ILRS AWG implemented new models and data screening
• The adoption of these changes caused some delay at some ACs that had to modify their code to implement them
• Delivery of 1983-2013 ILRS combination to ITRS last week
• ITRS will notify the ILRS AWG of any new “breaks” that we deem appropriate in the series and we will reach consensus
• If necessary, ILRS will deliver selected new SINEXs from ACs and a new combination from the CCs to ITRS.
• Development of an ITRF2014 under discussion—ILRS committed to support this within the foreseeable timeframe
