  • <div>The Pacific Islands Applied Geoscience Commission (SOPAC) requested Geoscience Australia to compute International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) coordinates for 18 survey sites on islands in the northern Fiji archipelago from continuous geodetic GPS measurements observed from 8th July to 5th August 2008 inclusive. The GPS data was processed using version 5.0 of the Bernese GPS Software in a regional network together with selected IGS sites. The GPS solution was constrained to the ITRF2005 reference frame through adopting IGS05 coordinates on selected IGS reference sites and using the final IGS earth orientation parameters and satellite ephemerides products.</div><div>These coordinates provide the coordinate reference frame to be used to define Fiji’s claim to extended continental shelf under the provisions of Article 76 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea.</div><div><br></div>

  • This report details the results of the 2017 Australian GNSS CORS Position Verification Analysis that has led to the creation of certificates of verification of the reference standard of measurement for position in accordance with Regulation 13 of the National Measurement Regulations 1999, National Measurement Act 1960. Our analysis of the Asia Pacific Reference Frame (APREF) CORS stations located on the Australian Plate has been aligned to a set of extended 109 Australian Fiducial Network stations with recognized value standard for position in Australia with Geocentric Datum of Australia (GDA2020) coordinates (refer to National Measurement Act 1960 - Recognized-value standard of measurement of position determination 2017 F2017L01352 https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2017L01352 ). GDA2020 coordinates and uncertainties are reported.

  • The annual Asia Pacific Regional Geodetic Project (APRGP) GPS campaign is an activity of the Geodetic Reference Frame Working Group (WG) of the Regional Committee of United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management for Asia and the Pacific (UN-GGIM-AP). This document describes the data analysis of the APRGP GPS campaign undertaken between the 15th and 22nd of September 2019. Campaign GPS data collected at 101 sites in ten countries across the Asia Pacific region were processed using version 5.2 of the Bernese GNSS Software in a regional network together with selected IGS (International GNSS Service) sites. The GPS solution was constrained to the ITRF2014 reference frame by adopting IGS14 coordinates on selected IGS reference sites and using the final IGS earth orientation parameters and satellite ephemerides products. The average of the root mean square repeatability of the station coordinates for the campaign was 1.8 mm, 1.6 mm and 5.4 mm in north, east and up components of station position respectively.

  • Data collected from Geodetic GPS observation campaigns over the last 15 years. This data set is from non-continuous GPS sites. It is a combination of surveys undertaken by Geoscience Australia, State collaborators and international collaborators.

  • The AMSIS Distance To tool calculates the distance to a selected marine feature. The output is the distance to the nearest feature from the given location.

  • The Print Service provides PDF map prints via an online interface. This service prints detailed PDF maps, including scale bar and marginalia.

  • The Identify_Tool service includes the key set of infrastructure layers included in the LeastCostPath and ClipAndZip geoprocessing tools. The indentify query uses a dynamic tolerance and returns features including geometry as JSON.

  • The Clip and Zip tool takes an input polygon extent as WKT input and clips required featureclasses listed. The data is referenced from its own database with all layers projected to 4326 spatial reference. The output is a zipped file geodatabase with a copyright text file included.

  • This collection includes Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations from long-term continuous or semi continuous reference stations at multiple locations across Australia and its external territories, including the Australian Antarctic Territory. <b>Value:</b> The datasets within this collection are provided on an openly accessible basis to support a myriad of scientific and societal positioning applications in Australia. These include the development and maintenance of the Australian Geospatial Reference System (AGRS); the densification of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF); crustal deformation studies; atmospheric studies; and the delivery of precise positioning services to Australian businesses. <b>Scope: </b> Data from reference stations across Australia and its external territories, including the Australian Antarctica Territory. <b>Access: </b> To access the datasets and query station information visit the <a href="https://gnss.ga.gov.au./">Global Navigation Satellite System Data Centre</a>

  • Data collected from the Australian Regional Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network, AuScope network and other GNSS observatories located around the world over the last 15 years.
