The symposium focuses on realization and maintenance of
global and regional reference frames including following
topics:
- Development and coordination of terrestrial and space
  geodetic observation techniques;
- Analysis and processing methods for combined parameter
  estimation;
- Definition, establishment, maintenance and integration
  of regional reference frames;
- Consistent determination of terrestrial and celestial
  reference frames and Earth orientation parameters.
Additional issues are the international collaborations
- for the definition and deployment of stations and networks
  of observatories,
- with scientific organizations, institutions, agencies and
  IAG Services.

IAG Commission 1 invites all experts to attend and to
