Scientific paper

The International GPS Service (IGS) and its Analysis Centers are engaged in developing new products related to timekeeping, some of which are relevant to the IVS community. Global comparisons and techniques for dissemination of atomic time are being developed in a Pilot Project with the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM). Full project information is available at http://maia.usno.navy.mil/gpst.html. In addition, high-quality estimates of Universal Time are now being made based on the observed motions of the GPS orbit planes. While these cannot replace the need for VLBI determinations of UT1, they are nonetheless very valuable for densifying the VLBI-based time series and for providing extremely rapid turnaround results necessary for real-time applications.
