A General Meeting of the lAG was held in Edinburgh, Scotland, to
commemorate its 125th Anniversary. The Edinburgh meeting, which
attracted 360 scientific delegates and 80 accompanying persons from
44 countries, was hosted jointly by the Royal Society, the Royal
Society of Edinburgh and the University of Edinburgh. The
scientific part of the program, which was held in the Appleton
Tower of the University, included the following five symposia:
Symposium 101 Global and Regional Geodynamics Symposium 102 GPS and
Other Radio Tracking Systems Symposium 103 Gravity, Gradiometry and
Gravimetry Symposium 104 Sea Surface Topography, the Geoid and
Vertical Datums Symposium 105 Earth Rotation and Coordinate
Reference Frames All together there were 90 oral and 160 poster
presentatio'ls. The program was arranged to prevent any overlapping
of oral presentations, and thus enabled delegates to participate in
all the sessions. The 125th Anniversary Ceremony took place on
August 7, 1989, in the noble surroundings of the McEwan Hall where,
53 years earlier, Vening-Meinesz gave one of the two Union Lectures
at the 6th General Assembly of the IUGG. The Ceremony commenced
with welcome speeches by the British hosts. An interlude of
traditional Scottish singing and dancing was followed by the
Presidential Address given by Professor Ivan Mueller, on 125 years
of international cooperation in geodesy. The Ceremony continued
with greetings from representatives of sister societies, and was
concluded by the presentation of the Levallois Medal to Professor
Arne Bjerhammar.
