With the development of the global navigation satellite system(GNSS), the hourly ultra-rapid products of GNSS are attracting more attention due to their low latency and high accuracy. A new strategy and method was applied by the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) Analysis Center (AC) of the international GNSS Monitoring and Assessment Service (iGMAS) for generating 6-hourly and 1-hourly GNSS products, which mainly include the American Global Positioning System (GPS), the Russian Global’naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikova Sistema (GLONASS), the European Union’s Galileo, and the Chinese BeiDou navigation satellite system (BDS). The 6-hourly and 1-hourly GNSS orbit and clock ultra-rapid products included a 24-h observation session which is determined by 24-h observation data from global tracking stations, and a 24-h prediction session which is predicted from the observation session. The accuracy of the 1-hourly orbit product improved about 1%, 31%, 13%, 11%, 23%, and 9% for the observation session and 18%, 43%, 45%, 34%, 53%, and 15% for the prediction session of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BDS Medium Earth Orbit (MEO), Inclined Geosynchronous Orbit (IGSO), and GEO orbit, when compared with reference products with high accuracy from the International GNSS service (IGS).The precision of the 1-hourly clock products can also be seen better than the 6-hourly clock products. The accuracy and precision of the 6-hourly and 1-hourly orbit and clock verify the availability and reliability of the hourly ultra-rapid products, which can be used for real-time or near-real-time applications, and show encouraging prospects.

Atualmente, o SIRGAS (Sistema de Referência Geocêntrico para as Américas) é realizado por uma rede GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) permanente denominada SIRGAS-CON, com cerca de 240 estações em funcionamento permanente, distribuídas na América do Sul, Central e Caribe. Os Centros de Análise SIRGAS foram estabelecidos com a finalidade de determinar sistematicamente as coordenadas das estações SIRGAS-CON, seguindo padrões estabelecidos internacionalmente, a fim de apoiar a manutenção do sistema e as atividades do Grupo de Trabalho SIRGAS-GT I (Sistema de Referência). Desde agosto de 2008 a Coordenação de Geodésia do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística-IBGE assumiu oficialmente as atividades de um Centro de Análise. Este é um trabalho cuja dedicação é crescente uma vez que o número de estações no continente Sul Americano vem aumentando rapidamente nos últimos anos. Desta atividade diária são geradas dentre outros resultados, as séries temporais das coordenadas de cada estação, possibilitando assim a determinação dos deslocamentos das estações em função da movimentação da crosta terrestre, os movimentos locais como subsidência e/ou soerguimento crustal, causados por fenômenos naturais, como por exemplo, terremotos, além de efeitos sazonais causados por fatores diversos. Paralelamente a atividade de processamento dos dados GNSS, o IBGE também realiza semanalmente a combinação das soluções semanais dos nove Centros de Processamento SIRGAS. Esta combinação tem por objetivo comparar os resultados com os obtidos pelo DGFI (Deutsches Geodätisches Forschungsinstitut), o qual disponibiliza a solução final semanal da rede SIRGAS-CON. Por se tratar de resultados precisos, a mudança em alguma informação no processamento pode acarretar alterações nas coordenadas determinadas e, conseqüentemente, descontinuidades nas séries temporais de cada estação. Recentemente, em 17 de abril de 2011 (semana GPS 1632), as órbitas (finais e rápidas), as correções dos relógios dos satélites e o modelo de calibração das antenas disponibilizado pelo International GNSS Service - IGS, passaram a estar referidos à nova realização do IGS, denominada IGS08. Conseqüentemente, a partir dessa data, os processamentos GPS que utilizam os produtos IGS terão seus resultados referidos a este novo sistema de referência, o que poderá acarretar descontinuidades nas coordenadas. O objetivo desse trabalho é apresentar a estratégia de processamento atualmente em operação, bem com uma nova estratégia visando à melhoria dos resultados. Outro objetivo é apresentar alguns resultados do processamento e combinação semanal realizados pelo IBGE, bem como esclarecer as alterações ocorridas com a adoção da nova versão da Rede de Referência Global para soluções GNSS, o IGS08 e uma análise preliminar da conseqüência desta mudança.

Abstract—An online automatic disaster monitoring system can reduce or prevent geological mine disasters to protect life and property. Global Navigation Satellite System receivers and the GeoRobot are two kinds of in-situ geosensors widely used for monitoring ground movements near mines. A combined monitoring solution is presented that integrates the advantages of both. In addition, a geosensor network system to be used for geological mine disaster monitoring is described. A complete online automatic mine disaster monitoring system including data transmission, data management, and complex data analysis is outlined. This paper proposes a novel overall architecture for mine disaster monitoring. This architecture can seamlessly integrate sensors for long-term, remote, and near real-time monitoring. In the architecture, three layers are used to collect, manage and process observation data. To demonstrate the applicability of the method, a system encompassing this architecture has been deployed to monitor the safety and stability of a slope at an open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia.

Real-time Precise Point Positioning (PPP) relies on the use of accurate satellite orbit and clock corrections. If these corrections contain large errors or faults, either from the system or by meaconing, they will adversely affect positioning. Therefore, such faults have to be detected and excluded. In traditional PPP, measurements that have faulty corrections are typically excluded as they are merged together. In this contribution, a new PPP model that encompasses the orbit and clock corrections as quasi-observations is presented such that they undergo the fault detection and exclusion process separate from the observations. This enables the use of measurements that have faulty corrections along with predicted values of these corrections in place of the excluded ones. Moreover, the proposed approach allows for inclusion of the complete stochastic information of the corrections. To facilitate modelling of the orbit and clock corrections as quasi-observations, International Global Navigation Satellite System Service (IGS) real-time corrections were characterised over a six-month period. The proposed method is validated and its benefits are demonstrated at two sites using three days of data.

The emergence of multiple global navigation satellite systems (multi-GNSS), including global positioning system (GPS), global navigation satellite system (GLONASS), Beidou navigation satellite system (BDS), and Galileo, brings not only great opportunities for real-time precise point positioning (PPP), but also challenges in quality control because of inevitable data anomalies. This research aims at achieving the real-time quality control of the multi-GNSS combined PPP using additional observations with opposite weight. A robust multiple-system combined PPP estimation is developed to simultaneously process observations from all the four GNSS systems as well as single, dual, or triple systems. The experiment indicates that the proposed quality control can effectively eliminate the influence of outliers on the single GPS and the multiple-system combined PPP. The analysis on the positioning accuracy and the convergence time of the proposed robust PPP is conducted based on one week’s data from 32 globally distributed stations. The positioning root mean square (RMS) error of the quad-system combined PPP is 1.2 cm, 1.0 cm, and 3.0 cm in the east, north, and upward components, respectively, with the improvements of 62.5%, 63.0%, and 55.2% compared to those of single GPS. The average convergence time of the quad-system combined PPP in the horizontal and vertical components is 12.8 min and 12.2 min, respectively, while it is 26.5 min and 23.7 min when only using single-GPS PPP. The positioning performance of the GPS, GLONASS, and BDS (GRC) combination and the GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo (GRE) combination is comparable to the GPS, GLONASS, BDS and Galileo (GRCE) combination and it is better than that of the GPS, BDS, and Galileo (GCE) combination. Compared to GPS, the improvements of the positioning accuracy of the GPS and GLONASS (GR) combination, the GPS and Galileo (GE) combination, the GPS and BDS (GC) combination in the east component are 53.1%, 43.8%, and 40.6%, respectively, while they are 55.6%, 48.1%, and 40.7% in the north component, and 47.8%, 40.3%, and 34.3% in the upward component.

Steep Slopes

Surface movement and deformation induced by underground coal mining causes slopes to collapse. Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) real-time monitoring can provide early warnings and prevent disasters. A stability analysis of high-steep slopes was conducted in a long wall mine in China, and a GNSS real-time monitoring system was established. The moving velocity and displacement at the monitoring points were an integrated response to the influencing factors of mining, topography, and rainfall. Underground mining provided a continuous external driving force for slope movement, the steep terrain provided sufficient slip conditions in the slope direction, and rainfall had an acceleration effect on slope movement. The non-uniform deformation, displacement field, and time series images of the slope body revealed that ground failure was concentrated in the area of non-uniform deformation. The non-uniform deformation was concentrated ahead of the working face, the speed of deformation behind the working face was reduced, the instability of the slope body was increased, and the movement of the top of the slope was larger than at the foot. The high-steep slope stability in the mine was influenced by the starting deformation (low stability), iso-accelerated deformation (increased stability), deformation deceleration (reduced stability), and deformation remaining unchanged (improved stability).

Errors in ultra-rapid UT1-UTC primarily affect the overall rotation of spatial datum expressed by GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) satellite ultra-rapid orbit. In terms of existing errors of traditional strategy, e.g., piecewise linear functions, for ultra-rapid UT1-UTC determination, and the requirement to improve the accuracy and consistency of ultra-rapid UT1-UTC, the potential to improve the performance of ultra-rapid UT1-UTC determination based on an LS (Least Square) + AR (Autoregressive) combination model is explored. In this contribution, based on the LS+AR combination model and by making joint post-processing/rapid UT1-UTC observation data, we propose a new strategy for ultra-rapid UT1-UTC determination. The performance of the new strategy is subsequently evaluated using data provided by IGS (International GNSS Services), iGMAS (international GNSS Monitoring and Assessment System), and IERS (International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service). Compared to the traditional strategy, the numerical results over more than 1 month show that the new strategy improved ultra-rapid UT1-UTC determination by 29–43%. The new strategy can provide a reference for GNSS data processing to improve the performance of ultra-rapid products.

Resolution Data

The use of high spatial and temporal resolution data assimilation and forecasting around Australia’s capital cities and rural land provided an opportunity to improve moisture analysis and forecasting. To support this endeavour, RMIT University and Geoscience Australia worked with the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) to provide real-time GNSS (global navigation satellite system) zenith total delay (ZTD) data over the Australian region, from which a high-resolution total water vapour field for SE Australia could be determined. The ZTD data could play an important role in high-resolution data assimilation by providing mesoscale moisture data coverage from existing GNSS surface stations over significant areas of the Australian continent. The data were used by the BoM’s high-resolution ACCESS-C3 capital city numerical weather prediction (NWP) systems, the ACCESS-G3 Global system and had been used by the ACCESS-R2-Regional NWP model. A description of the data collection and analysis system is provided. An example of the application of these local GNSS data for a heavy rainfall event over SE Australia/Victoria is shown using the 1.5-km resolution ACCESS-C3 model, which was being prepared for operational use. The results from the test were assessed qualitatively, synoptically and also examined quantitatively using the Fractions Skills Score which showed the reasonableness of the forecasts and demonstrated the potential for improving rainfall forecasts over south-eastern Australia by the inclusion of ZTD data in constructing the moisture field. These data have been accepted for operational use in NWP.
