The next realization of the International Terrestrial Reference System, the ITRF2020, is planned to be released in 2021. Our joint VLBI Analysis Center VIE which runs between TU Wien and BEV is one of eleven IVS (International VLBI Service for Geodesy and Astrometry) analysis centres which provide VLBI input to the ITRF2020. The SINEX files submitted to the IVS Combination Center are produced with the Vienna VLBI and Satellite Software VieVS and contain unconstrained normal equation systems for station position, source coordinates and Earth orientation parameters. In this presentation, we document the included sessions and stations in our submission and introduce the Vienna terrestrial reference frame based on our contribution to the ITRF2020. In particular, we highlight special settings in the Vienna solution and assess the impact on the terrestrial reference frame.
