The Levallois Medal was established in 1979 to honour Jean-Jacques Levallois for his long service from 1960 to 1975 as secretary general of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), and is presented every four years "in recognition of distinguished service to the association and/or to the science of geodesy in general". This year the Levallois Medal was awarded to Reiner Rummel during the opening ceremony of the IAG symposia at the International Union of Geodesy & Geophysics' General Assembly, from 20 June to 2 July 2015, in Prague, Czech Republic.
