To:      CESG Chair
From:    CCSDS Secretariat
Subject: CESG RESOLUTION CESG-03-014: "Radio Metric and Orbit Data"

In response to CESG Resolution CESG-03-014, the Secretariat conducted an
electronic poll of the CCSDS Management Council, beginning 2003-11-17 and ending
2003-11-28, to seek approval of the following proposed CCSDS Management Council
Resolution:

MC-E03-08.  The CCSDS resolves to change the status of Radio Metric and Orbit
Data, CCSDS 501.0-B-1, from CCSDS Recommendation to CCSDS Historical Document
after verifying that no ongoing program is currently using or planning to use
this document as a normative specification.

Result: Nine of ten CCSDS Member Agencies responded to affirm the proposed
resolution.  One Member Agency, RSA, did not respond but is presumed not to
disagree.  The Resolution is therefore adopted.

     __________________________________________
     CESG RESOLUTION, Tracking Number: CESG-03-014

     1. The CESG recommends to the CMC that, since CCSDS Document "Radio Metric
     and Orbit Data, CCSDS 501.0-B-1" is now 16 years old and the technical
     content of this document has been superseded by current flight dynamics
     practices, the document is now obsolete and should be retired and converted
     to "CCSDS Historic" status.
     2. HOWEVER, the CESG advises the CMC  that:
         A. The CMC should first advise and poll all agencies prior to taking
     this action, to make
              sure that no ongoing programme is using or planning to use this
     document.
         B. This document is an ISO Standard. The CMC therefore needs to work
     with ISO
              to make sure that the document is simultaneously retired within
     both ISO and CCSDS,
              and its status is therefore unambiguous.
         C. Replacement documents do not yet exist. However, the Navigation WG
     is developing new
             Recommendations for attitude, trajectory, and tracking data
     exchange based on current practices.
             The trajectory Recommendation is expected to be  finalized by
     January 2004. The attitude and tracking
             Recommendations are expected to be finalized in 2005.
     ________________________________________________

     Please forward this Resolution to the CCSDS Management Council, and notify
     the CESG when the CMC takes action.

     The results of the CESG poll Res-MOIMS-NAV-RM-OD-501.0-B-1 (that closed on
     15 October 2003) with respect to this Resolution are as follows:
