Abstract

The past three years have been marked by steady improvements in the utilisation of classical techniques employing conventional optical instruments such as PZT, astrolabe and transit instrument. There has also been a rapidly growing interest in the investigation of relationships between the astronomically-observed motions of the Earth and the data available from geophysical studies. In addition, and perhaps more significant to the future programme of work in the field of Commission 19, has been the continuing development of new techniques such as lunar laser ranging; very-long base-line interferometry (VLBI); laser, Doppler, and photographic tracking of artificial satellites.
