Abstract
In 1999, an International DORIS Experiment was initiated under the aegis of the International Association of Geodesy. Since then, 3 new DORIS satellites have been launched carrying improved Doppler receivers. In addition, the DORIS tracking network has also been steadily improved. In 2001, a DORIS analysis campaign was launched. Several groups participated using different software and providing weekly and monthly time series of results, making them available on Internet. The goal of this paper is to discuss the status of the DORIS Pilot experiment, to analyze the progress made during the past 2 years and to propose the official creation within the IAG of an International DORIS Service (IDS). Such a service would operate in conjunction with the already existing IGS, IVS and ILRS as part of the proposed International Global Geodetic Observing System (IGGOS).
