Abstract:

The Icelandic Meteorological Office (IMO) operates a network of continuous
GPS stations in Iceland to monitor crustal deformation.
Presently three stations are operating in the Hengill triple 
junction area in southwest Iceland and three south of Eyjafjalla- and 
Mýrdalsjökull in south Iceland. Three more stations are planned on
the behalf of IMO in the year 2000.
The main purpose of the network is to monitor these two volcanic areas
that have shown signs of unrest with increased seismicity in the Hengill area
since mid-1994, and Mýrdals- and Eyjafjallajökull since mid-1999.
The GPS stations were installed during the period from March to
October 1999.
We process the data using the Bernese V4.2 software and calculate
daily station coordinates and uncertainties. Automatic near real-time
data aquisition and processing is in development.
