ISO/AWI 19161-2

A working group has prepared a draft.

Abstract

This standard will provide a description of the numbering system replacing the DOMES numbering. The description of the DOMES numbering can be found in MERIT/COTES joint working groups, MERIT campaign: connection of reference frames, implementation plan, 1983. The standard will provide to the geodetic data producers and users a proper identification of the permanently instrumented stations, (e.g. those used in the production of the International Terrestrial Reference Frame and other similar stations), with special emphasis on the backward compatibility with existing DOMES numbers, which will have a positive impact on interoperability issues when merging several data from different communities. This standard will: • support interoperability among GNSS providers (GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, …) • clarify the potential confusion between communities which have already adopted their own numbering systems • support the UNGGIM GGRF resolution on global geodetic infrastructure.
