CORS/OPUS
FUTURE PROSPECTS
  • Delivery of some CORS data in near real-time via Ntrip


  • OPUS-RS to process 15 minute data sets


  • OPUS projects
2
Desired New Features
  • Process multiple files as network
  • Reduce occupation time to ~ 15 min
  • Process single frequency (L1) data
  • Publish OPUS results

STREAMING CORS DATA WITH NTRIP
  • What format?
  • What stations?
  • What software?
  • What distance?
  • What data rate?
  • What latency?

OPUS-RS
      • Uses RSGPS program instead of PAGES
      • (based on OSU MPGPS program)


      • Uses P1 and P2 as well as L1 and L2 obs


      • Resolves all ambiguities with LAMBDA


      • Geometry free linear combination used to determine DD ionospheric delays

RSGPS
8
RSGPS
  • May be used in two modes :
  • Network and Rover
  • In network mode, only reference stations are used and to solve for ambiguities and double difference ionospheric delays
  • In rover mode, ionospheric delays and troposphere parameters are interpolated from reference stations to rover.


9
OPUS-RS
  • Expected to produce solution with 15 minutes of data (vs. 2 hours for current OPUS)
  • Network solution (rather than individual baselines)
  • Expected accuracy approx. 2 cm horizontal and 4 cm vertical

OPUS-RS
  • Interface will be almost identical to regular OPUS


  • Output report will be similar to regular OPUS, but with quality indicators based on the W-ratio from the LAMBDA validation tests

OPUS Projects
  • Add project planning / monitoring
  • Automated file management
  • Review repeat measurements
  • Network adjustment with GPSCOM
  • Publish in NGS Integrated Data Base
