Abstract
An Italian geodetic network has been monumented and surveyed using a GPS satellite technique several times since 1988. The network can be divided into a general network, or reference frame, and a detailed network, smaller than the general one, to control the crustal deformations of the Mt. Melbourne volcano area. Some experiments were carried out to study the effects of some possible causes of variation in the GPS reference system, interesting for geodynamic purposes. In particular, tests were made on the use of precise ephemeris instead of broadcasting and different GPS data processing software, Bernese v.4.0 and Geotracer v.2.25. In 1995–96 absolute positioning was made for the network reference station, with the satellite Doris system, and the ITRF co-ordinates were obtained to compare them with the same ITRF co-ordinates obtained using GPS international campaigns.
