In fact all solutions contribute to the combined solution with the same weight. For ASI we use a rescaling factor which is a compromise between the estimated formal rms of the vertical components and the horizontal components. In comparison to the other solutions we find larger horizontal formal rms values (probably no ambiguity resolution) but smaller vertical rms values (probably lower elevation cut-off). - We perform free network solutions, specifying 6 no-net translation and rotation constraints to define the geodetic datum of the combined solution. We use the ITRF93 coordinates (up to GPS week 0859) respectively the ITRF94 coordinates (since GPS week 0860) of the sites BRUS, KOSG, MADR, MATE, WETT, GRAZ and ZIMM to align the free solutions with the terrestrial reference frame. - The comparisons between each individual solution and the combined solution is done using a 7-parameter Helmert transformation. The Helmert parameters are determined using all sites of the individual solutions. - In the first Table unweighted rms values (for the coordinate components in the local system North-East-Up), derived from the Helmert residuals, are shown for each site. - In the second table an (unweighted) rms is computed for each Analysis Center. These values are derived from the Helmert residuals of all sites of a particular Analysis Center.
