Ground-Based Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) Observation Data (1-second sampling, sub-hourly files) from NASA CDDIS

GNSS provide autonomous geo-spatial positioning with global coverage. GNSS data sets from ground receivers at the CDDIS consist primarily of the data from the U.S. Global Positioning System (GPS) and the Russian GLObal NAvigation Satellite System (GLONASS).

Since 2011, the CDDIS GNSS archive includes data from other GNSS (Europe’s Galileo, China’s Beidou, Japan’s Quasi-Zenith Satellite System/QZSS, the Indian Regional Navigation Satellite System/IRNSS, and worldwide Satellite Based Augmentation Systems/SBASs), which are similar to the U.S. GPS in terms of the satellite constellation, orbits, and signal structure. The sub-hourly GNSS observation files (un-compacted) contain 15 minutes of GPS or multi-GNSS observation (1-second sampling) data in RINEX format from a global permanent network of ground-based receivers, one file per 15 minutes per site.
