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.rndev RINEX-file -dir $procdir -interval 30
           
    

    where $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 -nosvclkfile flag to your solve call, 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.

! 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.

! 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
  SMTAU = 3*'RANDOMWALK', 
! how often do you want to estimate these stochastic parameters
  SDELT = 3*'/00:05', ! compute a position every 5  minutes
