Site Identification of the GNSS Monument Site Name : PONTA DELGADA Four Character ID : PDEL Monument Inscription : IERS DOMES Number : 31906M004 CDP Number : (A4) Monument Description : STEEL MAST Height of the Monument : 1.00 m Monument Foundation : ROOF Foundation Depth : (m) Marker Description : (CHISELLED CROSS/DIVOT/BRASS NAIL/etc) Date Installed : 2000-01-16T12:00Z Geologic Characteristic : See additional information Bedrock Type : BASALT LAVA Bedrock Condition : STABLE Fracture Spacing : (1-10 cm/10-50 cm/50-200 cm/over 200 cm) Fault zones nearby : YES/Azores Triple Junction Distance/activity : (multiple lines) Additional Information : The GPS station of Ponta Delgada is located : on the top of the Geo-Sciences Building of : the University of Azores. : Geologically the region is composed of : basalt lava flows younger than 50.000 years. : Pyroclastic layers are scarce in the area as : the strombolian cones responsible for the : effusion of the flows are more than 5 km to : the N and NE of the town. : At this distance from the eruptive centres : the lava flows are almost horizontal or dip : veryslightly towards the south. The main : faults are located near (or below) the : eruptive centres. Geologically it is a very : stable emplacementfor a GPS station. 2.
