in collaboration with the BIPM, to gather and share the information and the experience on available equipment, characterization of the hardware delays, data processing and scientific results;
to maintain contacts with the receiver manufacturers in order to inform them about our needs;
to stimulate the collection and analysis of code and carrier phase data from all GNSS constellations;
to stimulate the development of calibration procedures in agreement with new GNSS receiving systems;
to establish contacts with the parallel scientific communities working on the definition of the receiver output standards;
to study the clock results formats in agreement with the user needs.
