甚长基线干涉测量（VLBI）已被用于对相距甚远的天线之间的矢量分离进行精确测量。本文介绍了一种用于获取和处理VLBI数据的系统Mark-III。对该系统的测试表明，它在短基线上具有毫米级的精度;对长于几百公里的基线的测量表明，精度受到对流层路径延迟校准的不确定性的限制，只有几厘米的水平。1976年至1983年进行的VLBI实验表明，东加利福尼亚州和马萨诸塞州之间的距离每年没有几毫米或更大的变化，从而证明了北美板块的稳定性。从1980年到1984年的实验表明，从马萨诸塞州到瑞典的距离以每年1.7 ± 1厘米的速度增加，其中引用的标准差包括系统误差的估计影响
Very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) has been used to make precise measurements of the vector separation between widely separated antennas. The system for acquiring and processing VLBI data known as Mark-III is described. Tests of the system show it to have millimeter-level accuracy on short baselines; measurements of baselines longer than a few hundred kilometers suggest that accuracy is limited by the uncertainty in the calibration of tropospheric path delay to the level of a few centimeters. VLBI experiments conducted between 1976 and 1983 have demonstrated the stability of the North American plate by showing that there is no change in the distance between easternl-California and Massachusetts at the level of a few millimeters per year or greater. Experiments made from 1980 to 1984 indicate that the distance from Massachusetts to Sweden is increasing by 1.7 ± 1 cm/year where the quoted standard deviation includes the estimated effects of systematic atic errors
