Funded Activity Summary

Real-time atmospheric modelling for centimetre-level positioning based on Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) continuously operating reference station networks. Many applications of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) technology, such as surveying, mapping and precise navigation, require real-time positioning accuracies to centimetre levels. To support these applications, many countries are establishing dense networks of continuously operating reference stations, positioned typically less than 40 km apart. However, for Australia with its large and sparsely populated regions, these dense networks cannot be justified economically. Our project will investigate appropriate enhancement of sparse networks to maintain the same level of accuracy. It will focus on a better understanding of atmospheric conditions, currently a major limitation in the development of sparse networks.
