IERS Working Group on Prediction
This IERS WG on Prediction is designed to build upon the foundation laid by the Prediction Comparison Campaign (PCC) and also investigate the new data sets from the Combination Pilot Project. A major task of the working group will be to determine what prediction products are useful to the user community in addition to making a detailed examination of the fundamental properties of the different input data sets and algorithms. It should be noted that the Working Group will not repeat the PCC`s efforts. Taken together, the PCC and the Working Group create the potential for advancing the Earth orientation community`s understanding and allow for the creation of state-of-the-art prediction. It is expected that new improved products resulting from this analysis will replace some of the existing prediction products. (For more details, please consult the
