Subject: New Site

Institut fuer Angewandte Geodaesie has installed a new site in
Wettzell / Germany.  The site is located at the Fundamentalstation
Wettzell since February 1995. The new TurboRogue SNR 8000 operates in
addition and parallel to the existing Rogue SNR 800.

The data-files of the TurboRogue are named WTZR. 
Local ties from SLR (WLRS), VLBI and Rogue SNR 800 to the TurboRogue
are provided in the Site Information Form (IGS).

If there are unexpected problems e.g. with multipaths or with the
interpretation of the local vectors we appreciate your comments.
If there might be a GPS-solution for the local vector between the
old Rogue and the new TurboRogue, we appreciate to obtain results.

With best regards:

Wolfgang Schlueter

The vectors are refered to the point of the monument (our pillar # 1202):
dx = x (monument) - x (1202). 

Differential coordinates from the GPS monument to the reference and 
other monuments. The components are parallel to the XYZ-axes of the 
global geocentric reference system ITRF (WGS-84).

"Accuracy" is estimated accuracy of local survey (millimeters).
