摘要
Comparison of Cartesian coordinates determined at collocated sites using two independent space techniques, very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) and Global Positioning System (GPS), shows remarkable agreement even when the points in question span transcontinental distances. The results corroborate the capabilities of commercial dual-frequency GPS receivers to perform geodetic work at the highest available accuracy. Adjusted geocentric coordinates of a configuration of GPS stations well distributed along the eastern half of the United States were accurately determined (better than 10(-8)) in the rigorously defined International Earth Rotation Service (IERS) terrestrial reference frame ITRF 89.
