This includes the budget management, the record keeping and fee accounting of the individual IAG membership, and the preparation and documentation of all Council and Executive Committee meetings with detailed minutes for the EC members and meeting summaries published in the IAG Newsletters and the IAG Homepage. Important activities were the preparation and execution of the joint IAG-IASPEI Scientific Assembly 2017, the edition of the Geodesist s Handbook 2016 as the organisational guide of IAG with the complete description of the IAG structure (reports, terms of reference, documents), and the Mid-Term Reports (Travaux de l AIG Vol. 40). The accounting of the Journal of Geodesy and the IAG Symposia series, both published by Springer, were supervised. Travel grants for young scientists to participate in IAG sponsored symposia were handled. Communication and Outreach Branch (COB) The task of the COB is the IAG public relation in particular by maintaining the IAG Homepage and publishing the monthly Newsletter online and in the Journal of Geodesy. It also keeps track of all IAG related events by the meetings calendar. The IAG newsletter is sent to all IAG Officers, individual members, the Presidents and Secretaries General of the IUGG Associations and liaison bodies. The COB prepared, printed and distributed the IAG leaflet and IAG brochure and participated in the preparation of the Geodesist s Handbook Commissions and Inter-Commission Committee The four IAG Commissions (Reference Frames, Gravity Field, Earth Rotation and Geodynamics, Positioning and Applications) and the Inter-Commission Committee on Theory established their structure and scientific programme for the period (published in the Geodesists Handbook 2016) and coordinated their implementation. They reported regularly to the EC and prepared the mid-term reports for publication in the IAG Reports (Travaux de l AIG). Each Commission maintained its individual Homepage and held several symposia, workshops and other meetings (see below). All of them are organising a symposium at the IAG-IASPEI Scientific Assembly Services There are thirteen IAG Services, which split into three general fields: geometry (IERS, IDS, IGS, ILRS, and IVS), gravity (IGFS, ICGEM, IDEMS, IGeS, IGETS and BGI) and overlapping (BIPM and PSMSL). All of them maintain their own Homepages and data servers and hold their administrative meetings (Directing Board or Governing Board, respectively). They published their structure and programme in the Geodesists Handbook 2016, and the progress reports in the IAG Reports (Travaux de l AIG). Most of the Services held international meetings (see below). Global Geodetic Observing System (GGOS) The GGOS is IAG s observing system to monitor the geodetic and the global geodynamic properties of the Earth as a system. A new structure was implemented during the period 2015 to It includes a Consortium composed by representatives of the Commissions and Services, the Coordinating Board as the decision-making body, the Executive Committee, and the Science Panel. The scientific work of GGOS includes Bureaus, Focus Areas, and Working
