Real-time Pilot Project Overview and Status

This presentation by Mark Caissy from Natural Resources Canada at the International GNSS Service Workshop in Miami on June 4th, 2008, outlines the vision, purpose, and status of the real-time pilot project. It discusses the working groups, call for participation, objectives, and current network status. The goal is to establish a global network for real-time GNSS tracking and exchange of products and data among IGS members.

  1. Real-time Pilot Project Overview and StatusMark Caissy –Natural Resources Canadapresented at theInternational GNSS Service WorkshopMiami, June 4th 2008

  2. Outline • What is a pilot project • Let’s look back • Where are we today • Call for Participation • Status

  3. The Vision • IGS data and products available in real-time via IP communication links (open internet) • Global consistency of IGS rt-products • A multi-disciplinary community active and engaged

  4. A Pilot Project – What is It? • Working groups work on topics of interest to the IGS • charter and terms of reference • Pilot Projects • leverage the outputs from WG activities • provide an opportunity to further refine these outputs towards developing new IGS service offerings • first major step is to complete and release a call for participation

  5. Towards Real-time Workshop • RTWG Position Paper • The goal is to have in place a reliable, robust and manageable system of data and products exchange coming from a global network of multidisciplinary real-time tracking stations. • The objective of this session is to lay down the foundation needed to facilitate a free flowing exchange of real-time data and products among IGS members.

  7. Current Network(50+ stations)

  8. CFP- Key Objectives • Manage and maintain a global IGS real-time GNSS tracking network • Enhance and improve selected IGS products • Generate real-time products • Investigate standards and formats for real-time data collection, data dissemination and delivery of derived products • Monitor the integrity of IGU predicted orbits and GNSS status

  9. Call for Participation • Released in June 2007 • 32 proposals received – all were accepted • All activities are represented • Tracking stations • Network management • Data centers • RT-Analysis Coordinator • RT-ACs and RT-ACCs • Users

  10. Status • Official start of the pilot project occurred in April 2008 • Existing Activity • RTACC • Data exchange and product exchange formats • Website needs to be updated • GDC’s will become engaged • Considering common look and feel for RTIGS/NTRIP data exchange interfaces

  11. Recommendations • IGS – become active with RTCM SC 104 • Station Operators
