The national geodetic commissions of Germany (DGK), Austria (ÖGK) and Switzerland (SGK), encompassing the D-A-CH region, joint their efforts in GGOS-related activities and in better exploiting the potential of GGOS in terms of science and infrastructure. For this purpose a preparatory working group was established and mandated. Many groups in the D-A-CH region are already strongly contributing to various components and activities of GGOS and to the IAG services in general. In order to institutionalize their activities and to tighten the links with GGOS as an organization, they decided to establish the GGOS D-A-CH committee and to apply for the status of a GGOS Affiliate.

The application to become a new GGOS Affiliate was sent by Prof. Hansjörg Kutterer, as the chair of the GGOS D-A-CH committee, to the GGOS Coordinating Board. This application was approved by the GGOS Coordinating Board in May 2021.
