Abstract

Recently, several VGOS twin telescopes in
Europe were completed. We examine the use of VGOS
twin telescopes by a new scheduling approach. This ap-
proach is based on integer linear programming and cre-
ates uniform distributed observations over time. Sev-
eral VLBI intensive sessions are rescheduled involving
the VGOS twin telescopes and the impact on the tropo-
sphere and UT1 estimation is investigated.
