Abstract

This report introduces our VLBI systems facility and the network of the Geographical Survey Institute (GSI) VLBI stations. GSI has three mobile VLBI antennas and five permanent VLBI stations. GSI also installed a correlator and baseline analysis system at Tsukuba VLBI Center. We measured the vector from the reference point of a VLBI antenna to a geodetic ground marker for local tie at each VLBI station. We have published the results on the Web since January 2000. These web pages, which are easy to access from all over the world, show information about the GSI VLBI experiments. We will report on the results, the position and velocity of permanent stations, from our domestic experiments (1996-1999).
