Results
The final solution aligned to the SIRGAS reference frame is computed with datum constrained to the selected SIRGAS-
CON stations (Fig 2). The weights of the reference coordinates are inversely proportional to the internal precision of
the GPS measurements (±1E-04 m in the Bernese Software). The final positions of SIRGAS-ES2007.8 refer to the IGS05
(IGS realization of ITRF2005) and they are valid for the mean epoch of the total time span in which the observations
were carried out, i.e. 2007.8 (November 7, 2007). The precision of coordinates at the reference epoch is estimated to
be ±7 mm for the horizontal component and ±20 mm for the vertical one.
