GPS Validation Project

This project is funded by ESA as part of the Space Weather Applications Pilot Project. The GPS validation project is a service development activity and the basic objectives for the project are the following:

• Identify and describe Space Weather conditions which can adversely affect the quality and reliability of atmospheric profiling data acquired through GPS occultation measurements.
• Define characteristics indicative of poor GPS data quality resulting from adverse space weather effects.
• Devise algorithms to validate GPS data products in an operating near-real-time end-to-end chain for processing of GPS data from telemetry to application
