[IGSSTATION-7910] - 2020-03-10 (18/03/2020)
The receiver at the IGS station COCO was replaced with Septentrio PolaRx5. Details on the new receiver are available from the Geoscience Australia GNSS Site Manager and an updated site log has been submitted to IGS.
[IGSSTATION-7809] - 2019-11-22 (22/11/2019)
The receiver at the IGS station COCO was replaced due to receiver failure. Details on the new receiver are available from the Geoscience Australia GNSS Site Manager and an updated site log has been submitted to IGS.
Please note that from now on this station will only be providing RINEX 3 daily files and a real-time data stream. This will be reviewed during the next scheduled station upgrade.
[IGSSTATION-7808] - 2019-11-19 (20/11/2019)
COCO is currently offline. Most likely cause seems to be antenna failure. We are currently troubleshooting to determine the cause. RINEX and real time data will be unavailable until the issue is resolved.
[IGSSTATION-5933] - 2014-08-29 (29/08/2014)
Due to an equipment failure we have had to reset the receiver at the IGS site COCO. As a result there was a data outage from 2014—08-27T07:00Z to 2014-08-29T06:30Z.
[IGSSTATION-5867] - 2014-07-11 (22/07/2014)
Following on from the notifications provided in IGS station mail [5859 and 5863] we have again suffered a communication outage at the site COCO. Unfortunately this time we were forced to reset the receiver and as a result there will be no (or limited) static data products available from the site between 2014-07-07T00:00Z and 2014-07-10T02:00Z.
