This site is a continuously tracking station observing GPS+GLONASS satellites and has been in operation since September 26, 2009. Hourly and daily files are currently being posted to CDDIS. The antenna resides on a new permanent monument anchored to bedrock. A detailed IGS type log is available anonymously through ftp at: rtopsdata2.geod.nrcan.gc.ca Under the pub/gps/log . The approximates coordinates of the site are: Latitude (N is +) : +634521 Longitude (E is +) : -0683037 Elevation (m,ellips.) : 91.70 The station is presently being assessed by IGS.
