  1. Tide Gauge Benchmark MonitoringNeed for Reprocessing in Europe Tilo Schöne & the IGS TIGA Working Group

  2. Vertical Tide Gauge Control • Long-term stable and consistent frame to relate globally distributed tide gauge (sea level) measurements • Connecting national and local height systems to the shore-side sea level • Point-wise constraints for, e.g. GIA • Short-term control in earthquake-prone areas • Other scientific studies

  3. 2010 IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR THE GLOBAL OBSERVING SYSTEM FOR CLIMATE IN SUPPORT OF THE UNFCCC Action O9 [IP-04 O11] Action: Implement the GLOSS Core Network of about300 tide gauges, with geocentrically-locatedhigh-accuracy gauges; ensure continuous acquisition, real-time exchange and archiving of high-frequency data; put all regional and local tide gauge measurements within the sameglobal geodetic reference system; ensure historical sea-level records are recovered and exchanged; include sea-level objectives in the capacity-building programmes of GOOS, JCOMM, WMO, other related bodies, and the GCOS system improvement programme WMO/GCOS

  4. Vertical Reference FramesReport for the Period 2003 – 2007, Ihde et al. A global unified vertical reference system for an International Vertical Reference System (IVRS) can be realized by: • A global network of stations with coordinates in ITRF and geopotential numbers referred to a conventional global reference level. This network should include collocation of permanent GNSS, tide gauges, permanent (SG) and periodical (AG) gravity stations. • … GGOS/IAG

  5. Objectives of the TIGA-WG • Provide a dedicated GNSS product (coordinates, time series of coordinates, vertical rates) for sea level research of any kind (and other applications) • Interact with GLOSS, GCOS, IAG/GGOS, WCRP, etc. • Interact and align with GLOSS • defines the scope of TIGA • Main users of TIGA results • Promote the establishment of links to other geodetic techniques (DORIS, AG, SLR, VLBI)

  6. Components of the TIGA WG • TIGA Data Center • SONEL/Univ. La Rochelle (ULR), CDDIS • TIGA Network Coordinator • ULR • TIGA Analysis Centers • BIGF/UoL, DGFI, EUREF, GA, GFZ, ULR • TIGA Combination Centers • UoBerne, UoLuxembourg IUGG Melbourne, Session G06S1 Towards a Unified World Height System

  7. TIGA Network Development • Increasing network coverage • more valuable • more attractive 2010 2001

  8. Results from the IGS TIGA • Reprocessing of a large data set of GPS@TGs previously not know to IGS • Many scientific applications supported • Altimetry calibration • Sea level reconstruction • Sea level change analyses • Height system support IUGG Melbourne, Session G06S1 Towards a Unified World Height System

  9. 32 are TIGA & GCOS stations Out of these are 119 TIGA >600 GPS@TG 119 TIGA 88 GCOS >600 GPS stations near tide gauges 88 out of 350 are GCOS stations GNSS-controlled tide gauges Current situation

  10. 119 TIGA stations 72 TIGA stations provide local leveling information 119 TIGA 72 TIGA BM-TGZ 56 TIGA stations provide GNSS-TGZ ties Survey on ties to national height systems still missing But likely, the number goes down further Contribution to the Unification of WHS

  11. GFT ULR ETG DGF AUT ANU TIGA-repro1 coverage (2008) In Europe only 2 global solutions, weakly coverage and weakly constrained

  12. TIGA Network Europe Europe was covered by the ESEAS (European Sea Level Service) GNSS groups, but is not longer working Traditionally TIGA had only very limited coverage,  Improvement/Densification needed

  13. Possible EUREF Contributions • Take a key role to attract other national/regional networks • Network Densification in Europe • Provide European Expertise and Perspective • Establishing leveling ties between GNSS (benchmarks), tide gauge benchmarks and national leveling networks IUGG Melbourne, Session G06S1 Towards a Unified World Height System

  14. TIGA reprocessing frame • Reprocessing for 1995-2012 • Using IGS08b as common reference • Follow IGS-repro2 standards to a large extend • Weekly SINEX solutions (7 day combinations) and single-day SINEX • Preferable exchange of Normal Equations • Submissions for 1st TIGA repro October 2013

  15. Many thanks … • to the GNSS and tide gauge operators, • the IGS, IOC/GLOSS, • the TIGA members • and the GNSS, TIGA and sea level community support Questions: tschoene@gfz-potsdam.de Data Center: sonel@sonel.org Sorry for not being here, I hang around somewhere
