arranges and maintains the National Geodesic Network (including the Global Positioning System (GPS) base station networks); • performs the topographical mapping of the state, including: • obtains the images of the Earth’s surface and the information of remote research; • produces orthophotomaps; • forms the digital model of the surface of the territory of the country; • compiles air navigation maps; Outline:

National Geodetic Networks • Horizontal • Leveling • Gravimetric and Geoid model •RTK Network LatPOS; •Measurements in LatPos Network National Geodetic Network

Designations:

st vector between points of 1 order vector between points of 2nd order

National Leveling Network Gravimetric measurements; • Absolute gravimetric measurements in 1995 (EE, LT, LV); • Gravimetric measurements is carried out by one observer; • We are using 2 gravimeters CG-5; •We carry out regular gravimetric measurements also in our absolute gravimetric point in Rīga, in the territory of the Botanic Garden; • We intend to continue joint gravimetric measurements with Estonian, Lithuanian and Danish colleagues.

Indra Medumi Conclusions

1.GNSS network speeds up measurements. 2.Next generation for local Networks - cheaper and easiest managment, realtime monitoring -accuracy - 2 cm, outside – 4cm -integer network. -crossborder cooperation

3. Develop system to receive GLONASS GALILEO, COMPASS Contacts
