The convergence time of PPP-WIZARD solutions is reduced by ambiguity resolution (AR). The GPS + GLONASS + GALILEO (GRE) mode improved the convergence time of GPS + GALILEO (GE) mode by 22.0%, 15.5%, 17.1%, and 11.4% for the BNC, RTKLIB, PPP-WIZARD (AR) and PPP-WIZARD, respectively. For the GRE mode, RMSEs of the BNC, RTKLIB, PPP-WIZARD (AR), and PPP-WIZARD software packages in the horizontal/vertical component are 3.8/5.6, 2.6/6.2, 3.3/6.5, 4.3/7.0 cm, respectively. In comparison with the IGS-ZTD (International GNSS Service ZTD), BNC, RTKLIB, PPP-WIZARD (AR), and PPP-WIZARD solutions show a mean bias of 0.28, −0.72, 2.80, and 2.83 cm, respectively in GE mode. The GRE mode reduced the RMSEs of the ZTD estimations of BNC, RTKLIB, PPP-WIZARD (AR) and PPP-WIZARD by 2.9%, 5.1%, 0.6%, and 0.4% respectively.

Public [article]  inGPS solutions > vol 26 n° 1 (January 2022) . - n° 1 Titre : Spatiotemporal analysis of precipitable water vapor using ANFIS and comparison against voxel-based tomography and radiosonde Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mir Reza Ghaffari Razin, Auteur ; Samed Inyurt, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 1 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] Inférence floue [Termes IGN] modélisation spatio-temporelle [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] précipitation [Termes IGN] radiosondage [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] station GPS [Termes IGN] vapeur d'eau [Termes IGN] voxel Résumé : (auteur) Water vapor (WV) is one of the most important parameters in meteorological studies. Using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS), a new method has been proposed for spatiotemporal modeling of precipitable WV (PWV). In a first step, the tropospheric zenith wet delay (ZWD) is calculated using the observations of 23 GPS stations in the northwest of Iran. Out of these 23 stations, 21 stations for training and 2 stations for testing and validating were selected. The observations are for 15 days, ranging from day of year (DOY) 300 to 314 in 2011. The reason for choosing this area and time interval is the availability of a complete set of data. Then, the values of ZWD are converted to PWV. The PWV values obtained from this step are considered as the output of the ANFIS. Also, the latitude and longitude values of the GPS stations, the DOY, observational time (min), temperature (T), pressure (P), and relative humidity (RH) are considered input to ANFIS. The ANFIS network is trained using the back-propagation algorithm. After the training step, the PWV values are evaluated at 2 test stations, KLBR and GGSH, and at Tabriz radiosonde station (38.08° N, 46.28°E). For a more accurate evaluation, all the results of the new method are compared with the voxel-based tomography model. The evaluation of the results is performed using the relative error, standard deviation, correlation coefficient, and root-mean-square error (RMSE). Also, precise point positioning (PPP) is used to better evaluate the proposed model at test stations. The value of the correlation coefficient at the radiosonde station for the ANFIS and voxel is 0.90 and 0.87, respectively. Also, the minimum RMSE calculated for the ANFIS and voxel are 1.02 and 1.06 mm, respectively. In the PPP analysis, an improvement of about 4 mm is observed in the coordinates of the test stations using ANFIS. The results confirm the capability and high accuracy of the proposed model in determining the temporal and spatial variations of PWV.

Tropospheric and range biases in Satellite Laser Ranging / Mateusz Drożdżewski in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 9 (September 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 9 (September 2021) . - n° 100 Titre : Tropospheric and range biases in Satellite Laser Ranging Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Mateusz Drożdżewski, Auteur ; Krzysztof Sosnica, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 100 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] correction troposphérique [Termes IGN] données Lageos [Termes IGN] données TLS (télémétrie) [Termes IGN] erreur systématique [Termes IGN] géocentre [Termes IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes IGN] retard troposphérique zénithal [Termes IGN] télémétrie laser sur satellite Résumé : (auteur) The Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) technique provides very accurate distance measurements to artificial Earth satellites. SLR is employed for the realization of the origin and the scale of the terrestrial reference frame. Despite the high precision, SLR observations can be affected by various systematic errors. So far, range biases were used to account for systematic measurement errors and mismodeling effects in SLR. Range biases are constant for all elevation angles and independent of the measured distance to a satellite. Recently, intensity-dependent biases for single-photon SLR detectors and offsets of barometer readings and meteorological devices were reported for some SLR stations. In this paper, we study the possibility of the direct estimation of tropospheric biases from SLR observations to LAGEOS satellites. We discuss the correlations between the station heights, range biases, tropospheric biases, and their impact on the repeatability of station coordinates, geocenter motion, and the global scale of the reference frame. We found that the solution with the estimation of tropospheric biases provides more stable station coordinates than the solution with the estimation of range biases. From the common estimation of range and tropospheric biases, we found that most of the systematic effects at SLR stations are better absorbed by elevation-dependent tropospheric biases than range biases which overestimate the total bias effect. The estimation of tropospheric biases changes the SLR-derived global scale by 0.3 mm and the geocenter coordinates by 1 mm for the Z component, causing thus an offset in the realization of the reference frame origin. Estimation of range biases introduces an offset in some SLR-derived low-degree spherical harmonics of the Earth’s gravity field. Therefore, considering elevation-dependent tropospheric and intensity biases is essential for deriving high-accuracy geodetic parameters.

For this purpose, a field test was carried out in Çorum province, Turkey, on 11 September 2019. Within this context, a Geodetic Point (GP) was established and precisely coordinated. A static GNSS measurement was occupied on the GP for about 4-hour time at 0.10 second (s)/10 Hz measurement intervals with the Trimble R10 geodetic grade GNSS receiver. The original observation file was converted to RINEX format and then decimated into the different data sampling rates as 0.2 s, 0.5 s, 1 s, 5 s, 10 s, 30 s, 60 s, and 120 s. All these RINEX observation files were submitted to the Canadian Spatial Reference System-Precise Point Positioning (CSRS-PPP) online processing service the day after the data collection date by choosing both static and kinematic processing options. In this way, PPP-derived static coordinates, and the kinematic coordinates of each measurement epoch were calculated. The PPP-derived coordinates obtained from each decimated sampling intervals were compared to known coordinates of the GP for northing, easting, 2D position, and height components. According to the static and kinematic processing results, high data sampling rates did not change the PPP solutions in terms of accuracy when compared to the results obtained using lower sampling rates. The results of this study imply that it was not necessary to collect GNSS data with high-rate intervals for many surveying projects requiring cm-level accuracy.

The aim of this effort is to deliver high-quality Integrated Water Vapour (IWV) estimates to investigate the moisture environment of mesoscale cloud patterns in the Tradewinds and their feedback on the large-scale circulation and energy budget. This paper describes the GNSS data processing procedures and assesses the quality of the GNSS IWV retrievals from four operational streams and one reprocessed research stream which is the main data set used for offline scientific applications. The uncertainties associated with each of the data sets, including the zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) to IWV conversion methods and auxiliary data, are quantified and discussed. The IWV estimates from the reprocessed data set are compared to the Vaisala RS41 radiosonde measurements operated from the Barbados Cloud Observatory (BCO) and to the measurements from the operational radiosonde station at Grantley Adams international airport (GAIA). A significant dry bias is found in the GAIA humidity observations with respect to the BCO sondes (−2.9 kg m−2) and the GNSS results (−1.2 kg m−2). A systematic bias between the BCO sondes and GNSS is also observed (1.7 kg m−2) where the Vaisala RS41 measurements are moister than the GNSS retrievals. The IWV estimates from a colocated microwave radiometer agree with the BCO soundings after an instrumental update on 27 January, while they exhibit a dry bias compared to the soundings and to GNSS before that date. IWV estimates from the ECMWF fifth generation reanalysis (ERA5) are overall close to the GAIA observations, probably due to the assimilation of these observations in the reanalysis. However, during several events where strong peaks in IWV occurred, ERA5 is shown to significantly underestimate the GNSS derived IWV peaks. Two successive peaks are observed on 22 January and 23/24 January which were associated with heavy rain and deep moist layers extending from the surface up to altitudes of 3.5 and 5 km, respectively. ERA5 significantly underestimates the moisture content in the upper part of these layers. The origins of the various moisture biases are currently being investigated. We classified the cloud organisation for five representative GNSS stations across the Caribbean Arc and found that the environment of Fish cloud patterns to be moister than that of Flowers cloud patterns which, in turn, is moister than the environment of Gravel cloud patterns. The differences in the IWV means between Fish and Gravel were assessed to be significant. Finally, the Gravel moisture environment was found to be similar to that of clear, cloud-free conditions. The moisture environment associated with the Sugar cloud pattern has not been assessed because it was hardly observed during the first two months of 2020. The reprocessed ZTD and IWV data set from 49 GNSS stations used in this study are available from the AERIS data center (https://doi.org/10.25326/79; Bock (2020b)).
