The goal of this review paper is to recall the concept of geodetic reference frame, showing its intrinsic dependence from all the information and choices related to its realization, and to discuss the still alive distinction between "global'' and "local'' reference frames, considering the unbreakable link between Geodesy and Geophysics. An up-to-date review of the most relevant presently adopted global and local (in this respect, mainly at European and Italian level) reference frames is presented. Finally, some conclusions and still open problems, related to the current research, are outlined.

Abstract

The goal of this review paper is to recall the concept of geodetic reference frame, showing its intrinsic dependence from all the information and choices related to its realization, and to discuss the still alive distinction between "global'' and "local'' reference frames, considering the unbreakable link between Geodesy and Geophysics. An up-to-date review of the most relevant presently adopted global and local (in this respect, mainly at European and Italian level) reference frames is presented. Finally, some conclusions and still open problems, related to the current research, are outlined.
