Abstract

We describe the local tie survey work performed at the Onsala Space Observatory in the year 2002. Classical geodetic measurements and measurements with the Global Positioning System (GPS) were used to determine the local tie between the reference points at Onsala that are relevant for the International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astronomy (IVS) and the International GPS Service (IGS) in a local and a global reference frame. The new local tie information together with the corresponding covariance information is available in SINEX format.
