Popis: On the base of International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2008 (ITRF2008) a new global plate model of station positions and velocities with accuracy 1–3 mm and 1 mm per year respectively was established. Next, this model was used in our paper for plate motion parameters estimation for the major plates as Eurasian, North American, Pacific and small plates as Australian, African and Antarctic on the base of the observation campaigns for three techniques: Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), Doppler Orbitography by Radiopositioning Integrated on Satellite system (DORIS) and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), each technique was analyzed separately. Investigation for GNSS technique is scheduled to take place in the future. The plate motion parameters were adjusted using least squares method and sequential solution. In the first stage, the plate motion parameters were determined for two selected stations and next stations were added until stability of the solution was observed. Final results of our solution were compared with the APKIM 2005 IGN model by H. Drewes. Agreement of solutions is order 2 degrees or better.
