Editor's Notes

  1. Monitoring of our nation’s infrastructure is increasing in importance as our infrastructure ages and populations become more vulnerable based on proximity to these facilities. Historical monitoring techniques have various limitation. Many are two dimensional or only provide periodic data that fail to reflect the true motion of the structure being monitored. GPS overcomes many of these issues. First introduced in Switzerland in 1992-post processing 1999 Pecoima Dam-post processing 2000 Blenheim-Gilboa-first real-time network
