| Scope (Session Description) |
The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is an observation sensor with high temporal resolution that can monitor crustal deformation caused by earthquakes and volcanic phenomena, the dynamics of water vapor in the troposphere, and spatio-temporal variations in the ionosphere caused by solar activity and other surface phenomena on the Earth. In Japan, GSI has been operating GEONET for more than 25 years since 1996, consisting of more than 1,300 GNSS observation points with 20-30 km spacing, and has greatly contributed to understanding various earth science phenomena. On the other hand, recent years have seen remarkable technological developments such as automated driving and drones. GNSS is the foundation of the navigation technology that underlies these technologies, and in addition to conventional metric positioning, centimeter-accurate, real-time position information acquisition using carrier phase is becoming universally available. Cell phone carriers have started to deploy their own GNSS observation networks throughout Japan as a reference site, and their applications to earth science have also been started. In this session, we discuss the usability and issues of the dense GNSS observation network and discuss a wide range of topics related to earth science based on the dense GNSS observation data. |
