Implementation of an on-line system for GNSS data processing
Journal Title: Revista Brasileira de Cartografia - Year 2019, Vol 71, Issue 2
Abstract
The processing of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data by scientific software is a growing need in Space Geodesy studies. However, deal with these, in general, is not always an easy task. Thereby, a system that helps in processing is important for researches efficiency of the entire user community. This paper discusses the implementation and validation of an online system for GNSS data processing and analysis, which enables sharing the use of Bernese GNSS software at UFV. The GNSS-UFV system is available at http://gnss.ufv.br. This system is prepared to receive, assist and manage requests for GNSS data processing with Precise Point Position (PPP) and Relative methods by Bernese GNSS software, and then forward and store processing results. The GNSS-UFV PPP was tested and compared with IBGE-PPP service. The average planimetrics resultants accuracy was the same for both systems, 0.013m, while the average altimetrics components accuracy was 0.020m for the IBGE-PPP and 0.018m for the GNSS-UFV. The GNSS-UFV Relative method was compared with AUSPOS service, where the average planimetrics resultants accuracy was 0.009m and 0.010m and the average altimetrics components accuracy was 0.021m and 0.026m for AUSPOS and GNSS-UFV, respectively.
Disambiguation of the Terms of Large Scale Topographic Mapping and Cadastral Mapping in Brazil
The local government is the main provider of direct services to the population. In Brazil, the competence to produce topographic mapping at large scales (greater than 1: 25,000), required for urban planning and the Cadas...
Two aspects on L1-norm adjustment of leveling networks
L1-norm adjustment corresponds to the minimization of the sum of weighted absolute residuals. Unlike Least Squares, it is a robust estimator, i.e., insensitive to outliers. In geodetic networks, the main application of L...
Evaluation of the planimetric accuracy of Google Earth for cartographic base production
Currently, we are experiencing an expansion of new mapping and geospatial information sharing technologies. One of these technologies is Google Earth, through which users have access to cartographic information. However,...
Influence of the density of vertices on the Hausdorff Distance and Vertex Influence methods
Using linear features for cartographic quality control is advantageous because they represent the majority of the data in a cartographic base and are spatially well distributed over it. However, the application of some l...
The map-use research focused on Map-Reading, Map-Using, and Map-Generating tasks
This paper presents a conceptual and epistemological review about the mapuse research, focusing on the map-reading tasks. We have discussed the theoretical connections needed to stablish the Cartography as science, based...
