Station Report
Geoid velocity added
To correct for the vertical drift between reference frames, the velocity of the geoid height (VN) is now calculated and incorporated into the calculation of the orthometric height. View documentation to learn more.

Location
IQAL is a continuously tracking GNSS station and is part of the Canadian Active Control System (CACS). The station is located in Iqaluit, Nunavut.
The GNSS reference mark consists of an aluminum cylinder 1.8 m in height and 0.20 m in diameter, anchored to bedrock. The top of the monument is fitted with a welded plate and a centered 5/8th inch bolt.
