The satellite coordinates are given in the International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF). This thesis investigates Precise Point Positioning (PPP) using dual and single frequency pseudorange and carrier phase observations. Both the static and kinematic modes are investigated. The static PPP solution examples use six-hour data sets from four stations. The observations were made while Selective Availability (SA) was active and after it had been discontinued. The static solutions agree to within 10 cm with published coordinates or with solutions obtained from the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) PPP Internet service. The kinematic solutions show a discrepancy of less than one meter, mostly around half a meter. For observations with low multipath, the research shows that single-frequency ionosphere-free PPP solutions are equivalent to the dual-frequency solutions. In case of single-frequency observations the pseudorange dominates the solution. Using a priori tropospheric information does not seem to improve dual-frequency PPP solutions as compared to the case when the vertical tropospheric delay is estimated as part of the Kalman filter solution. However, a priori tropospheric information seems to provide benefits to single-frequency kinematic PPP. The Saastamoinen model is used when computing the zenith tropospheric delay. In all cases, the Neill's mapping function is applied. The studies show high correlation between receiver clock and the up coordinate. The troposphere has a high negative correlation with receiver clock and the up coordinate. However, the troposphere is more correlated with the receiver clock than the up component. All solutions incorporate corrections for solid earth tides, relativity, and satellite antenna phase center offsets. Corrections have not been applied for the phase wind-up angle. The widelane and ionospheric functions are used to detect and fix cycle slips in a semigraphical manner. Since even a single cycle slip significantly falsifies PPP solutions, it is suggested that between-satellite carrier phases be used as another way of detecting slips (now since SA has been discontinued). The software consists mostly of highly modular Mathcad functions that form an excellent base for continued research of PPP. Note de contenu : 1. Introduction

This thesis examines specifically how spatial (geographic) information might be handled in such a network. It first examines the current state of spatial data cataloging. It then looks at how spatial resources (in the forms of archived data sets, active databases, analytical software, and automated services) might be arranged in the National Information Infrastructure by developing limited scenarios of spatial resource interactions. Five possible paradigms (based on trends in current electronic access mechanisms) to catalog these scenarios are compared. Service protocols, conceptual models for developing intelligent computer to computer exchanges, were found to be the most pragmatic choice of possible cataloging paradigms. Two examples of spatial resource service protocols are developed and presented. Note de contenu : 1. Introduction

From 1985 until the present, the number of research groups working on temporal GIS has noticeably increased. Yet, much research must still be done before temporal GIS become available. Information systems have to consider temporal data to answer queries that could not be answered otherwise, such as: "Which town had the greatest increase in population last year?" We believe that a detailed case study was necessary to determine the actual-reasoning structures and requirements in temporal GIS. Cadastral systems provide us with such an example. A cadastral system must include temporal data to answer queries as: "Who owned this house in 1988?" The goal of this thesis is to understand the reasoning powers in traditional cadastral systems better. We are studying the process of recording and inferring about rights in traditional cadastral systems to obtain the underlying logic-base. Once we understand how the reasoning is done in such systems, we can formalize their conceptual entities and operations. Temporal reasoning is necessary for knowledge-based cadastral systems that will make assertions and inferences to assist users in making their decisions more easily and reliably. To achieve this goal, we need to gain a clear understanding of the temporal aspects, rules and operations used in the reasoning about cadastral records. The objectives for achieving this goal are (1) to study and analyze the needed expressive power for temporal data in cadastral systems; (2) to identify and formalize the conceptual entities of a cadastral system; (3) to formalize, with a temporal logic, procedures for an intelligent search and to make inferences about temporal events in these systems; and (4) to prove the correctness of the concept by implementing a prototype. The major contribution of this study is to provide the different temporal reasoning powers in cadastral systems, to provide a formal description of the legal and topological reasoning in them, and to provide us with the temporal logic that is necessary for it.

The scope is limited to a discrete view of geographic reality similar to "area-class maps", "categorical coverages", and "nominal fields". The spatial theory consists of representations of resolution-limited spatial knowledge, meta data that describe the knowledge content of representations, and transformations between representations of different type, resolution, format (raster or vector). The spatial theory addresses the following problems: (1) What limitations does limited resolution impose on spatial knowledge that is represented in GIS? (2) How can such resolution-limited knowledge be represented in a way that keeps precise track of the contained spatial knowledge and its limitations? (3) How can the same spatial knowledge be represented in different formats such as raster and vector? (4) How can spatial knowledge be transformed to other representation types, levels of resolution, and formats? The viability of the proposed spatial theory is shown by demonstrating the implement ability of representations and transformations. The practical applicability of the proposed resolution concept is shown by relating it to the resolution of sensors and by showing that resolution-limited representations can always be visualized within the limitations of display media.
