Permanent GPS Stations<br />

India has a dedicated network <strong>of</strong> 41 Permanent GPS stations out <strong>of</strong> which 5<br />

are maintained by Survey <strong>of</strong> India and rest by other government and autonomous<br />

organizations like Wadia Institute <strong>of</strong> Himalayan Geology (WIHG), Geological Survey<br />

<strong>of</strong> India (GSI), Indian Institute <strong>of</strong> Geomagnetism (IIG), Indian Institute <strong>of</strong> Astrophysics<br />

(IIA) and several other organizations. These Permanent GPS stations have been<br />

established to monitor <strong>of</strong> Geo-Tectonic activities in the country as a long term<br />

program funded by Department <strong>of</strong> Science and Technology, Govt. <strong>of</strong> India. GPS<br />

Data from all these stations is received in the National GPS Data Centre, Geodetic<br />

Research Branch, Survey <strong>of</strong> India. All these stations will be used for realization <strong>of</strong> the<br />

datum. All such stations can be termed ‘Continuously Operating Reference Stations’<br />
