Given the current literature reports, little research is involved in the quantitative analysis of each error of the VTEC map and the spatiotemporal characteristic of global VTEC accuracy. Based on the single layer model and sphere harmonic function, we propose an approach using simulated GPS data to comprehensively verify the accuracy of the VTEC map. The spatiotemporal characteristic of global VTEC accuracy and the errors induced by different processing steps, i.e., carrier phase to code leveling, mapping function (MF), DCB estimation and coefficient fitting, are analyzed and discussed in detail. In addition, the effect of solar activity on the accuracy of the global VTEC map, MF and DCB estimation has been discussed. The results suggest: First, it is found that the MF error at sunrise is more significant than that at sunset, and this important characteristic can be proven based on the analysis of theory and ionospheric radio occultation and VTEC measurements; second, the MF is the most significant error source in the VTEC processing for regions with dense and homogeneous distributed GPS stations, e.g., North America and Europe. The VTEC accuracy in these regions can be improved by 100% with the satellite elevation cutoff angle increasing from 12° to 30°; finally, compared with the global VTEC accuracy using 350 GPS stations observations, the accuracy is improved by 306% based on the double GPS stations with even distribution.

Tidal water levels are a combination of astronomical (deterministic part) and non-astronomical (stochastic part) water levels. In this study, we combined Harmonic Analysis (HA) with three Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), namely the Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM), Convolution Neural Network (CNN), and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP). The HA method is used for predicting the astronomical components, while DNNs are used to predict the non-astronomical water level. We have used tide gauge data from three stations along the southern coastline of Iran to demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of our model. We utilized RMSE, MAE, R2 (r-squared), and MAPE to evaluate the performance of the model. Finally, The LSTM network shown superior performance in most of the cases, although other networks also show good results. All three DNNs have R2 of 0.99, and the RMSE, MAE, and MAPE indicate that errors are low.

Spherical harmonic synthesis of area-mean potential values on irregular surfaces / Blažej Bucha in Journal of geodesy, vol 96 n° 10 (October 2022)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 96 n° 10 (October 2022) . - n° 68 Titre : Spherical harmonic synthesis of area-mean potential values on irregular surfaces Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Blažej Bucha, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 68 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] champ de gravitation [Termes IGN] convergence [Termes IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes IGN] surface hétérogène [Termes IGN] transformation de Legendre [Termes IGN] transformation rapide de Fourier Résumé : (auteur) We present a method to integrate external solid spherical harmonic expansions at geographical grids residing on undulated surfaces. It can be used to evaluate area-mean potential values on planetary surfaces that vary within grid cells. This is in contrast with available methods, which assume cells with a constant spherical radius only. When formulating the technique, we took advantage of 2D spherical Fourier methods to improve the computational speed. The price to be paid are high memory requirements, even with moderate maximum harmonic degrees such as 100 (both of the potential and of the irregular surface). In numerical experiments, we validate the method against independent area-mean potential values to prove its correctness. A study of the series behavior below the sphere of convergence shows that the series may diverge on planetary topographies, similarly as it is with its point-value counterpart. The method can be utilized in numerical studies of the change of boundary method, one of the pivotal concepts of recent high-degree models such as EGM2008. A numerical implementation is made available through CHarm, a C library to work with spherical harmonics up to high degrees. CHarm is accessible via https://github.com/blazej-bucha/charm.

Validation of regional and global ionosphere maps from GNSS measurements versus IRI2016 during different magnetic activity / Ahmed Sedeek in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 16 n° 3 (July 2022)  

Public [article]  inJournal of applied geodesy > vol 16 n° 3 (July 2022) . - pp 229 - 240 Titre : Validation of regional and global ionosphere maps from GNSS measurements versus IRI2016 during different magnetic activity Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Ahmed Sedeek, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : pp 229 - 240 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] Afrique du nord [Termes IGN] données GNSS [Termes IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes IGN] International Reference Ionosphere [Termes IGN] interpolation [Termes IGN] Matlab [Termes IGN] modèle ionosphérique [Termes IGN] station GNSS [Termes IGN] teneur verticale totale en électrons Résumé : (auteur) This manuscript explores the divergence of the Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) estimated from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements using global, regional, and International Reference Ionosphere (IRI) models over low to high latitude regions during various magnetic activity. The VTEC is estimated using a territorial network consisting of 7 GNSS stations in Egypt and 10 GNSS stations from the International GNSS Service (IGS) Global network. The impact of magnetic activity on VTEC is investigated. Due to the deficiency of IGS receivers in north Africa and the shortage of GNSS measurements, an extra high interpolation is done to cover the deficit of data over North Africa. A MATLAB code was created to produce VTEC maps for Egypt utilizing a territorial network contrasted with global maps of VTEC, which are delivered by the Center for Orbit Determination in Europe (CODE). Thus we can have genuine VTEC maps estimated from actual GNSS measurements over any region of North Africa. A Spherical Harmonics Expansion (SHE) equation was modelled using MATLAB and called Local VTEC Model (LVTECM) to estimate VTEC values using observations of dual-frequency GNSS receivers. The VTEC calculated from GNSS measurement using LVTECM is compared with CODE VTEC results and IRI-2016 VTEC model results. The analysis of outcomes demonstrates a good convergence between VTEC from CODE and estimated from LVTECM. A strong correlation between LVTECM and CODE reaches about 96 % and 92 % in high and low magnetic activity, respectively. The most extreme contrasts are found to be 2.5 TECu and 1.3 TECu at high and low magnetic activity, respectively. The maximum discrepancies between LVTECM and IRI-2016 are 9.7 TECu and 2.3 TECu at a high and low magnetic activity. Variation in VTEC due to magnetic activity ranges from 1–5 TECu in moderate magnetic activity. The estimated VTEC from the regional network shows a 95 % correlation between the estimated VTEC from LVTECM and CODE with a maximum difference of 5.9 TECu.
