Description

Dionysos Satellite Observatory (DSO) of National Technical University of Athens, has been routinely processing GPS/GNSS data to monitor ground deformation in Greece. Since 2015, DSO has also been actively involved in EUREF's Densification project; during these last couple of years, a big effort has been made to try to establish and organize a credible data-set out of a fairly inhomogeneous list of stations, installed by various institutes to serve different ends. Meanwhile, our processing platform has been modernized, updated and enlarged to accommodate the efficient analysis of large GNSS datasets and the corresponding dissemination of results and products. DSO has thus contributed SINEX files spanning the time period from 1996 up to (and including) 2016, steaming from a network of 50 GPS/GNSS sites, spatially covering most of Greece. Our plan, is not only to continue our contribution within the Densification project, but also to extend the available data-set via collaborations with public and/or private institutions. We are also looking forward to extending our contribution to other projects, within the community.
