Abstract
The GGOS-D global terrestrial reference frame has been computed from a combination of homogeneously processed VLBI, SLR and GPS observation time series. A major focus was on the analysis of station position time series, investigations regarding the handling of non-linear station motions, and the development of refined combination methods. The terrestrial reference frame (station positions and velocities) has been estimated simultaneously with the Earth orientation parameters and the celestial reference frame (quasar coordinates).
