GGFC Special Bureau for Loading, 2002-2009

Please note that this IERS component ceased operation in 2009.

Within the IERS Global Geophysical Fluids Center the Special Bureau for Loading (SBL) has got the task to promote, stimulate and coordinate the work and progress towards a service providing products related to surface mass loading. The SBL will provide in near real-time a consistent global solution data set describing at least the surface deformation, gravity signal and geo-centre variations due to the various surface loading processes in reference frames relevant for direct comparison with existing geodetic observing techniques.
