List of changes in the International Mass Loading Service.

• 2017.07.09 Restored tidal ocean loading models FES2012 and GOT-4.8. Fixed a bug related to checking the limits for users with unlimited access.

• 2017.06.20 The mass loading algorithm computation was changed: now it computes all loadings at 2′ × 2′ global grid with applying sampling correction, stores the global high resolution gridded loading, expands it into 2D B-spline basis, stores the coefficients and uses this expansion for interpolation loading displacement to a given point.

  Models MERRA-1, GEOS-FP, NOAH025, GOT-4.8, FES-2012 are decommissioned.

  New models MERRA-2, GOT-4.10c, and FES-2014b are included.
  4th generation.

• 2014.06.17 Support of ocean tidal loading using GOT-4.8 and FES2012 models was added.
  3rd generation.
• 2014.04.04 Support of non-tidal ocean loading using OMCT05 model was added 3rd generation.
• 2013.06.01 Support of land water storage using MERRA-1, GEOS-FPIT and NOAH025 models was included. The atmospheric model NCEP Reanalysis-1 is decommissioned. The atmospheric pressure loading service now uses MERRA-1, GEOS-FPIT, and GEOS-FP models. Loading on-demand computation is provided. The atmospheric pressure loading service is moved to massloading.net
  3rd generation.
• 2005.01.24 The service now includes the atmospheric contribution to geopotential was established.
  2nd generation.
• 2002.12.12 The atmospheric pressure loading service is established. NCEP Reanalysis-1 model is used. Originally it was called Goddard atmospheric pressure loading service.
  2nd generation.
