At the highest accuracy, these antenna coordinates are functions of time due to plate techtonics, with global solutions published at semi-regular intervals as the ITRF (International Terrestrial Reference Frame). Depending on their usage within casacore, you may/may not need such accuracies. Regards Dr. Jonathan Quick VLBI Operations Manager, HartRAO
