NEWG Activities and Meetings2004San Fernando, Spain (June 2004): Minutes 2003Nice, France (April 2003): Agenda, Minutes 2002The compilation of site logs into a database was completed. It can be accessed at ftp://cddis.gsfc.nasa.gov/reports/slrlog/sitelog_master_2002_may_09.xls The fourth and fifth NEWG meetings were held in Nice, France and Washington, D.C., respectively. In March 2002 the EUROLAS Workshop: Detecting and eliminating errors in the EUROLAS network was held. 2001Ulrich Schreiber organized the second SLR Calibration Colloquium to be held in conjunction with the SPIE Remote Sensing Symposium in Toulouse, France (September 2001). This colloquium was canceled due the event of September 11, 2001. 2000The second and third NEWG meetings were held in Nice, France and Matera, Italy, respectively. The CB streamlined the ILRS message distribution process. The CB and NEWG defined a procedure to quickly notify station operators of urgent messages. The CB and NEWG developed and documented normal point data submission procedures including backup modes. Site Logs were completed by the most of the ILRS network stations by the end of 2000. Ulrich Schreiber published the results from the first SLR Calibration Colloquium held in Florence, Italy (September 1999). 1999The first Networks and Engineering Working Group (NEWG) meeting was held in September 1999, in Florence, Italy. During this meeting, the members of the WG were finalized. The following 6 major activities were defined based on the NEWG Charter. In order to distribute the work load, each working group member was assigned one or more fields of activities. The CB developed the ILRS Bibliography, an online collection of papers, reports, descriptions, manuals, etc. The CB generated a list of catalogue of quality checks performed by the various analysis centers. HTSI developed an automated format and data integrity program for ILRS normal point (ref: data integrity and format algorithm) The NEWG email exploder was created (ilrsnewg@ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov). The Data Centers developed a satellites prediction flow chart. W. Gurtner developed an ILRS site log form based on the IGS site log form. EUROLAS developed a real-time system status exchange, including recently tracked satellites and their time biases. The ILRS CB established a weekly network status report. Stefan Reipl develop a program to compute satellite link budgets, normalized for LAGEOS (ref: http://www.wettzell.ifag.de/publ-cgi-bin/linkbudget.py). Ulrich Schreiber organized and conducted the first SLR Calibration Colloquium held in Florence, Italy (September 1999).
