Release Notes: Data from all the campaign stations in Chiapas were compiled for an NSF sponsored study of northern Central America by Andria Ellis and Chuck DeMets. The data consist of observations from 2002 through 2005, which were gathered by a French/Mexican collaboration by Professors Helene Lyon-Caen and Cecile Lasserre of ENS Paris and the University of Lyon and Professors Marco Guzman-Speziale and Vladimir Kostoglodov of UNAM, and data from 2015 which were gathered via the NSF-sponsored study of Professor DeMets in collaboration with Marco Guzman-Speziale of UNAM. The 2015 data do not sample all the 2002-2005 GPS sites, at least one of which had been destroyed by 2015. The campaign data for each year are accompanied by a README file and an antenna information file with the vertical ARP antenna heights and antenna types (the latter in SINEX format). The information in the antenna information file has NOT been compared to the information in the Rinex headers, but is presumably consistent. The 2015 data also include updated site descriptions and photos. Site logs and site occupation sheets are not available.
