Argos JTA meetings Documents
The Argos Joint Tariff Agreement (JTA) provides for an international mechanism to seek for cost-effective location and data processing of data collected through the Argos system. The JTA is functioning through stakeholders whose roles are mainly to negotiate the Argos service level and tariff, and ensure appropriate coordination amongst Argos users in order to represent their collective interests with regard to Argos tariff and requirements.
The basic aims and principles, based on the discussion at the JTA-XXIII (Angra dos Reis, 2003), was agreed at the JTA-XXIX (Paris, 2009) as follows:
1. The benefits of JTA participation should be shared equally amongst all participants (Users).
2. The revenue collected from Users should meet the costs of providing the service.
3. Developments required by Users should be funded by Users.
4. Costs of developments not of benefit (or of marginal benefit) and not driven by User requirements should not 1. fall on Users.
5. There should be a clear division between a basic (funded) service and other (e.g. value added) services.
6. The Tariff structure should be simplified to reduce the number of service categories.
7. System developments should be fully endorsed by JTA and those affecting Users agreed in advance.
