Geodetic applications of laser rangingThe paper describes the use of dynamic methods of laser ranging of a low altitude satellite along with proposed experiments involving both dynamic and geodetic methods of laser ranging of the Lageos satellite. Particular attention is given to the testing of laser ranging techniques across the San Andreas Fault in California where it is hoped that plate motion will be observable after several years of measurements.
