VERA Galactic Plane Survey
In 2007 two 12 hours VLBI observing sessions were made with VERA array plus
KASHIM34 station. The goal of these observations was to evaluate the
feasibility to determine positions of calibrator sources using the VERA array
itself.
In total, 147 sources, including calibrators were observed. Among them
were sources from the KQ VLBA survey and from K-band VERA
fringe search survey.
Current status
Observations were put on hold for a long time because of lack of
software that could analyze the data. The problem was solved in winter 2012.
Prelimiary results are encouraging. However, more tests with geodetic data
are necessary in order to be sure no systematic errors are introduced.
Waiting for avilability of geodesy VLBI data from Mitaka correlator.
