Abstract
The Finnish Geodetic Institute has carried out geodetic operations at the Metsähovi research station since the 1970s. During the last ten years a number of new observation sites have been founded for GPS, SLR, VLBI etc. Some of these are located at Sjökulla, 3 km NNW from the original Metsähovi. Questions concerning the positions of the points relative to each other are frequently asked. Both terrestrial and GPS measurements have been used to determine the centering elements and connecting vectors, and measurements have been repeated to detect possible movements of the benchmarks. A brief summary of the observation sites and the local measurements carried out between them is now given.
