The Future Shape of a Greenland GNSS Observation Network
From Tuesday 24 January 2017
To Wednesday 25 January 2017
Location Greenbelt, Maryland, US

Organizers of a workshop, entitled "The Future Shape of a Greenland Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Observation Network" call for participant registration. The one- and one half-day workshop will convene 24-25 January 2017 at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.

The goal of the workshop is to define a path forward for a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observation network in Greenland.
Such a network already exists in the form of the Greenland network GNET, a joint U.S./Danish network of GPS receivers. Existing funding for GNET is drawing to a close, and the future of the network remains uncertain. This workshop aims to bring the various stakeholders and potential users of these data together to define the system requirements and the path forward.

There is no cost for attending this NSF-sponsored workshop, and a limited amount of travel funding is available for those in need.

Access to Goddard Space Flight Center requires documentation to be submitted to NASA in advance.

For details about required documentation, go to:

NASA documentation submission deadline: Tuesday, 3 January 2017.

NASA documentation submission for foreign visitors deadline:
Friday, 23 December 2017

Workshop registration is open until filled.
