Topics
- GNSS-Signal quality on marine inland vessels
- Navigation of marine inland vessels and signal challenges due to bridge
- approaches like, e.g., virtual receiver (VirtRX) and kinematic baseline (KinBL) in
- combination with additional sensors (IMU) for inland marine vessel navigation (IVN)
Questions
- analyzing GNSS-Signal interruption / distortion by bridges (receiver quantities andqualities)
- data combination and evaluation of GNSS and INS (Inertial Navigation Systems) for static/kinematic approaches
- elaborate GNSS-Signal quality for marine applications (surface reflections, resistance versus ship geometry, etc.
Applications
- commercial software like, e.g. Leica LGO 8.3/8.4 and Novatel’s GrafNav
- coding own applications in Matlab (IfE-GNSS TBX V6.1) or other languages
- reference trajectories and verification by (tightly) coupled GNSS/INS and other solutions (PPP, DGNSS, GPPS from SAPOS, ...)
- references frames (ETRF, ITRF, local body system, etc.)
