After successful completion of the course, students are able to coordinate and analyze a VLBI experiment. The students are capable of creating a schedule and validating their results using Monte-Carlo simulations. Furthermore, the students are able to interpret the key values in VLBI raw data analysis and carry out a geodetic parameter estimation.
This course deals with a complete project handling in the field of space geodesy.
The aim is to carry out a VLBI session. This includes generating a schedule including simulations of this schedule. Additionally, this session should be correlated and analyzed.
The science goal of this session can be chosen freely.
