Station occupations by IfE in 2003 – 2005

25 different stations

Comparison of 2004 and 2005 results

Absolute gravity results in 2005 are less than in 2004

at nearly all 13 stations.

Summary of IfE campaigns 2003 – 2005

• 25 different stations occupied by IfE

• accuracy for one station determination ±2…±4 µGal

• several FG5 setups per station

• relative gravimetry: vertical gradients (<±1 µGal)

eccentres (national net

points)

• monitoring of lokal water level (groundwater, lakes)

• monitoring of height changes of absolute gravity point

levelling to height benchmarks

• at nearly all stations continuous GPS available

• connection to tide gauges
