Abstract
The techniques and tools developed for geodetic determinations have made it possible, over the past half century, to carry out measurements using global navigation satellite systems. As the accuracy and precision of positioning solutions, such as Fast Static and RTK, improve through technological advances, more applications will become available that can provide users with positioning information over time, autonomously verify the integrity of transmitted data, and ensure sufficient accuracy for their intended purposes. In our study for the interpretation, analysis, and visualization of raw and/or processed RINEX GNSS data recorded over time at a geodetic point using the information available from the Fast Static technique, we used the GeoRinex library from the Python programming language. This library converts data to xarray.data set, for easy use in processing parameter sets, from Rinex files: of ROMPOS reference stations and of the new B10 point resulting from measurements using the Fast Static technique: pseudorange (C1, C2, P1, P2....), carrier phase (L1, L2,…), doppler (D1, D2....) and signal strength (S1, S2....). All this information will help us to analyse and interpret the degradation of the parameters associated with Rinex version 2.11 epoch positioning files 12.02.2023, time interval 12:00-14:00 (fast static) and to understand their accuracy and behavior in different environments. Based on this study, our aim was to evaluate the error in determining the positioning accuracy of the B10 point located in a crowded and heavily trafficked area, which allows sufficient coverage of the GNSS satellites.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
