An online school on time-variable gravity from GRACE and GRACE-FO satellite missions Satellite gravimetry has become an indispensible tool for studying the earth system. The satellite missions CHAMP, GRACE/GRACE-FO and GOCE along with Satellite Laser Ranging have demonstrated the utility of time-variable gravity data in understanding the mass changes and their transport within and between […]
Towards a National Geodesy Working Group for South Africa Geodesy — the science of measuring the Earth’s shape, orientation, gravity field, and changes over time — is the foundation of modern mapping, positioning, land administration, infrastructure, and climate monitoring. South Africa has a proud history in terrestrial and space geodesy, from early triangulation networks to […]
The 2025 GRACE-FO Science Team Meeting will take place from Oct 7-9, 2025, in Boulder, CO (USA), at the University of Colorado, Boulder, in the Village Center! This meeting will be held in hybrid mode (i.e., in-person with live-remote options). Event Category: igfs

The aim of this training school is to prepare for the next generation of VLBI, both in terms of technical development and knowledge transfer between generations of researchers. The new VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS) is being installed worldwide and continues to develop. VGOS promises significant improvement in the accuracy of VLBI results. Thus, VGOS […]
The XVI SIRGAS School will be held in the beautiful city of San Juan, Argentina, with the aim of training professionals in the field of geodesy through the processing of VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) and SLR (Satellite Laser Ranging) data, key techniques for the definition of global reference frames. The purpose of this course is to provide […]
