Abstract
In the opinion of geologists, there are at least three active tectonic structures in Austria. For the determination of possible relative movements or strain in these areas, small networks in the size of about 50 km times 50 km were established and are planned to be measured repeatedly by using GPS. In Fall 1987 the station positions of the networks were measured, for the first time, as one part of the Austrian Geodynamic Densification Network (AGEDEN) project. The tectonic situation, the planning and realization of the measurements as well as the computational methods and results are presented.
