It is critical to evaluate the reliability of using free online processing software for Global Navigation Satellite System post-processing since the advancement of GNSS gives satellite navigation customers all over the world great benefits. AUSPOS, IBGE, Magic GNSS, CSRS-PPP, and open-source software are some of the online processing solutions being evaluated for accuracy in this study. GNSS observations from IGS were used to conduct field observations using RINEX 3 data from three stations, with an observation duration of 30 seconds. After data acquisition, it was processed with online and free software that made use of GPS, GPS, and GLONASS. When compared to coordinates obtained from reference stations, the relative differences and correctness of the coordinates generated by each piece of software were then evaluated. coordinates in the ITRF14 reference for the X, Y, and Z directions. Online GNSS processing services may be used with greater accuracy for engineering and geodetic applications and are simple to use without the need for GNSS data processing expertise.

For users of Precise Point Positioning (PPP), Multi-GNSS Advanced Orbit and Clock Augmentation PPP signals provide corrective data. When using the PPP approach and/or PPP-Ambiguity Resolution (AR) method, the QZSS signal provides globally applicable error corrections on satellite orbit, clock offset, and code/phase biases. In addition, from FY2024, as a part of the MADOCA-PPP technology demonstration, wide-area ionospheric correction data will be provided for the Asia-Oceania region. A software estimator of precise satellite information developed by JAXA, Multi-GNSS Advanced Demonstration Tool for Orbit and Clock Analysis (MADOCA), allows u-blox CO99-ZED-F9P and MSJ 3008-GM4-QZS utilizing MADOCA-PPP to be used in GNSS applications that need sub-decimetre precision but don't have to be expensive. Errors caused by positioning satellites are computed by using observation data from domestic and overseas GNSS monitoring station networks such as IGS and MIRAI, and obtained correction data is transmitted from QZSS signal to provide highly precise positioning augmentation services that can be used in the Asia-Oceania Region. Users may utilize the PPP technique for high-precision locating by employing a GNSS receiver that supports the QZSS signals. This paper describes an experiment carried out with the static method to combine GPS, GLONASS, and QZSS signals in the project site (ISHI, USUD and MIZU stations in Japan). This paper examines the GPS/GLONASS/QZSS obtainable accuracy. These obtained results indicate that integrating GPS system with GLONASS and QZSS is favoured for surveying applications. It appears that integrating GPS/GLONASS/QZSS (MADOCA precise ephemeris file) static measurements in the study area between 0-4 millimetres accuracy can be guaranteed on all occasions.

The European Commission (EC) originally proposed ideas for a European Galileo satellite navigation system in 1999. A four-phase development is planned, involving investment from both the public and commercial sectors. Galileo is intended for both public and government use; the system is administered and operated by civil administration. Galileo will consist of a constellation of 30 satellites, a number of globally situated ground stations, and a ground control and monitoring system - all of which are quite similar to the structure, format, and layout of GPS. This document discusses an experiment at the project site that used the static approach to integrate GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, Beidou, and QZSS signals. This research analyses the possible precision of GPS-only and GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO/Beidou/QZSS. These results suggest that combining a GPS system with GALILEO, GLONASS Beidou, and QZSS is preferable for surveying purposes. Integrating GPS/GLONASS/GALILEO/Beidou/QZSS static measurements in the study region with 0-120 millimetre accuracy looks to be possible in three days. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The 2014 North Aegean Sea earthquake was a strong (Mw 6.9) event that caused significant crustal deformations. In the present study we investigate the long-term impact of the earthquake on the kinematics of the North Aegean Trough (NAT). For this purpose, we analyzed GPS observations collected from May 2010 to April 2022 at five permanent GPS reference stations. Two of these stations are located close to the epicenter(s) on the Islands of Lemnos and Samothrace. We processed the data using the Precise Point Positioning (PPP) technique. The analysis of the obtained coordinate time-series revealed a post-seismic deformation (PSD) period lasting for more than two years leading to cumulative 2D post-seismic displacement of 22 mm and 27 mm for Samothrace and Lemnos, respectively. The magnitudes of these post-seismic slip vectors correspond to 23% and 49% of the co-seismic vectors at Samothrace and Lemnos, respectively. The long-term analysis showed that after the end of the PSD period the stations are characterized by stable velocities that are noticeably different compared to the velocities prior to the event. We observed a change in the velocity in the order of 2 mm/yr for both Samothrace and Lemnos. It is the first time that PSD and velocity changes have been reported for the 2014 North Aegean Sea earthquake shedding light on the characteristics and the impact of this important earthquake on the kinematics of NAT.

People are fascinated today more than ever by the polar regions of the Earth. One reason for this is that wide expanses of the Arctic and Antarctic have not been explored and are therefore still viewed as frontier regions. Another is that they both have very diverse histories with regard to their origins and ice formation. Their numerous aspects still pose many puzzles for science today. The regions of the Earth designated as polar are those areas located between the North or South Pole and the Arctic or Antarctic Circles, respectively. The northern polar region, called the Arctic, encompasses the Arctic Ocean and a portion of some surrounding land masses. The southern polar region, called the Antarctic, contains the continent of Antarctica and areas of the surrounding Southern Ocean. In this paper three tests (2000, 2010 and 2021) of continuous GNSS data recorded by 8 permanent International GPS Service (IGS) stations in both Polar Regions have been processed by using CSRS-PPP Software for geodetic networks. The results also show that all GNSS provide good visibility with low elevation angles, whereas with high elevation angles, which might be needed due to natural barriers, the GLO-NASS and other satellites provides the highest number of visible satellites. Consequently, the mean motion of the study area was found approximately 7-15 cm for horizontal components (X-Y) and 6 cm for vertical components (Ellipsoidal Height) on the eight IGS points in the both poles.
