Presentation Transcript

  1. Online Positioning User Service (OPUS) • Submit GPS data to OPUS Web site • Processed automatically on NGS computers • Ties to 3 CORS (OPUS-S) or • Ties to up to 9 CORS (OPUS-RS) • Solution via email - in minutes • Fast, easy, consistent access to NSRS

  2. combined

  3. L1/L2 data • 2-48hrs GPS (OPUS-S) • 15min-4hrs GPS (OPUS-RS) • Static GPS observations only • 30-second epochs processed • Correct vertical requires: • antenna type/phase model • mark-to-ARP vertical height OPUS Guidelines

  4. e-mail GPS file antenna options antenna height OPUS-S (2 hr) OPUS-RS (15 min)

  5. OPUS Options specify SPCS specify CORS

  6. OPUS Options (cont) extended output XML output OPUS project user profile

  7. Antenna Height • true vertical distance • measured in meters ARP MARK

  8. GPS Antenna Calibration site for photos/diagrams: www.ngs.noaa.gov/ANTCAL/

  9. CORS B How are OPUS-S Positions Computed? • NGS PAGES processing software • Ionospheric-free solution • Tropospheric scale height adjusted • Fixed ambiguities • Average of 3 unique CORS ties • ITRF & NAD83 coordinates/errors CORS A + CORS C

  10. Is Your Solution Good? • > 90% observations used • > 50% ambiguities fixed • < 3 cm overall RMS • check ephemeris type • check antenna info • < 5 cm peak-to-peak errors …and which CORS were used? … resubmit later for better CORS scenario & ephemeris

  11. NGS/IGS Precise Orbits • Precise (Final) • 14 days latency • 1 cm accuracy • updated weekly • Rapid • 1 days latency • 2 cm accuracy • updated daily • UltraRapid • 24 hrs observed / 24 hrs predicted • 5 cm / 10 cm accuracy • updated 4 times/day

  13. OPUS – Extended Output • HTDP-transform CORS ITRF coordinates from published epoch to session midpoint • remote station ITRF solution from each CORS • G-files – vector components, standard deviations, & correlations for each vector • post-fit RMS & # observations per satellite/vector • solution covariance matrix-relates errors in each coordinate to every other coordinate • network accuracies - H & V • summary of NAD83 derivation • SPC feet values, if available for user’s state

  14. OPUS-Rapid Static (OPUS-RS) • 15-minute sessions • ties to 3 – 9 CORS (< 250km) • uses RSGPS vs. PAGES software • P1/P2 code & L1/L2 phase observations • resolves all ambiguities with LAMBDA • similar to Real-Time Network computations • RSGPS solution modes: • network: solves ambiguities, tropo, iono • rover: tropo and ion interpolated to rover • ~10,000 lines of code
