Considerable effort has been made to collocate permanent GPS and VLBI sites for comparison. The global GPS solution is derived from daily measurements spanning four years while the VLBI solution is based on monthly measurements spanning more than 10 years. Current WRMS agreement of velocities is 3-5 mm/yr for horizontal rates and 6-10 mm/yr for vertical rates. Comparison of velocities is limited by the time span of GPS data. Positions agree at the level of 1-2 cm and their comparison is limited by the quality of the site ties. Best and worst agreement will be discussed along with possible sources of systematic error.
