# Where is the station located? Co-located with the existing MORP IGS GPS-only site in NE England, with inter-station spacing ~7m # Is the station currently operating, or planned? If planned, when is the projected date it will become operational? Currently operating # What agencies are responsible for installing, managing, operating, and maintaining the station? Newcastle University together with leica geosystems (UK) # What is the expected operational lifetime of the station? How secure is the funding? Indefinite. Plans are to convert to GPS/GLONASS/Galileo when available # Will the station replace an existing IGS station? If so, what is the scheduled date of decommissioning? Does the new station offer more capability than the old one? No, the current MORP station will remain active # Does/will the station meet all of the strictly required IGS site guidelines (http://igscb.jpl.nasa.gov/network/guidelines/guidelines.html)? Yes. # What is the data delivery schedule? Hourly and daily. 1Hz data transmission is also possible. # Can you set the receiver for "all in view" tracking (including tracking of satellites set unhealthy)? Yes, but this is not yet done. # Are there currently operating IGS stations within 1000km? Approximately how many? Does this site offer any capabilities the others do not? This site adds a GLONASS site to NW Europe # What IGS product or project will this site benefit, based on its location, instrumentation, and latency? GPS/GLONASS products, including rapid products. A met station is also on site (morp*m files already submitted) # Is this station intended to tie a national datum to the ITRF? It is expected that both MORP and the new site will contribute to the EUREF definition and hence the national UK datum. # Is there a web page associated with this site (please specify)? If not, please include a site photo or two with this application. # Is data available on a public server (please specify)? No, although this could be arranged.
