Kinematic Processing
From GeodesyLab
Workflow
- define subnet file (including clock site, a couple of non-kinematically estimated sites, at the ones you are really interested in)
- define namelist (nml) file (RANDOM-WALK!), at best put them into /home/akda/Kinematic . That's also were examples live
- adapt script that calls solve (check whether you need a rapid solution -- when orbits aren't in yet)
- run solution
- extract data from .trop files
- plot results.
Temporal Resolution below 5 min
The standard solutions run with a temporal solution of 5 minutes (6 minutes if older than 1995). This means the standard qm files do not contain enough information if you need a finer resolution. Here is what to do:
- create campaign directory:
newcamp /gps/data/CAMPAIGN_NAME-interval - create qm files for all rinex files from sites that go into that campaign for respective time:
rnx2qm RINEX-file -dir $procdir -interval 30or
reprocess_rinex station-name start-day end-day rinexdir outdir intervalwhere $procdir=/gps/data/CAMPAIGN_NAME-interval, i.e. the campaign directory you just created.
- copy the orbits for the repective day(s) into /gps/data/CAMPAIGN_NAME-interval/orbit
- add the
-nosvclkfileflag to yoursolvecall, to make sure the satellite clocks are not used ... - or get high resolution clocks for the respective days from ftp://sideshow.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/gipsy_products/hrclocks/ and copy those into /gps/data/CAMPAIGN_NAME-interval/orbit
- if you got the high resolution orbits, make sure to rename them: mv *.tdp *.tdpc
- make sure to update the $CAMP variable in the make-xxxxx file that you copy into your /gps/data/CAMPAIGN_NAME-interval/flt directory
Define the solution parameters
Use an NML file to define the solution parameters. Here is an example to start with.
$PREP !namelist input for preprefilter
! reference clock is REQUIRED. you need to use one of
! your sites, generally one with a stable clock. Mostly
! it means anything except a trimble. If an external
! oscillator is used, then it can be a reference clock.
REFCLOCK = 'THU1'
! just says whether the troposphere will be estimated stochastically.
! except for very short baselines, this is always true.
WETZTROP = .TRUE.
! This is the white noise sigma applied to phase ambiguity parameters
! whenever a new ambiguity needs to be estimated (.1 seems to work).
yaddsg = 0.1
! this is the random walk constraint for the troposphere, in km/sqrt(sec)
TROPDRIFT = 1.70D-7
! if you want to estimate additional paraetmeters stochastically, you
! put them here. You don't have to put clocks here, because GIPSY
! assumes that all clocks will be estimated stochastically.
SSTCH = 'STA E SCOB','STA N SCOB', 'STA V SCOB'
! in this example they are the east, north, and vertical components
! for station SCOB. Generally station locations are not
! estimated stochastically
! This tells you how to constrain the parameters you named above.
SPSIG = 3*1.0D-6, ! random walk constraint
