Data collected by the GPS [Global Positioning System] core stations are used for generating precise ephemerides and for solving for Earth orientation and rotation parameters. The network should be organized into regional clusters of stations that can be used (1) to monitor regional or local crustal deformation or relative plate motions and (2) to supplement the core network, providing redundancy and therefore enhanced orbit control by serving as additional fiducial stations. 2, record 1, English, - fiducial%20core%20station
