Geoscience Australia currently retains the Analysis Centre Coordinator role for the International GNSS Service (IGS). The IGS Analysis Centre Coordinator (ACC) has overall responsibility for generating the main official IGS combined products. Currently, there are three IGS product lines for GNSS satellite orbits and clocks, namely the IGS Final, the IGS Rapid, and the IGS Ultra-rapid products, each with different accuracies and latencies. The IGS is a key operational agency for supporting multi-constellation GNSS operations enabling governments, academia and industry to provide highest quality positioning services. This coordination role is fundamental to the Positioning Australia program and specifically for the Ginan Analysis Centre Software to transition into an IGS endorsed globally recognised Analysis Centre. This talk introduces the GA's role in the IGS Analysis Centre Coordination and the relevance to the Positioning Australia and generally Australia operating a GNSS Analysis Centre with an operational Ginan analysis centre software as part of the GA Strategy 2028 Creating a Location-Enabled Australia.
