About the Course

Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), including GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, BEIDOU, QZSS, and IRNSS, comprise constellations of Earth-orbiting satellites that continuously broadcast radio signals on multiple frequencies. These signals enable the precise three-dimensional positioning of any point on Earth. From navigation and timing services in aviation and agriculture to critical applications like plate motion studies and geodesy, GNSS plays a vital role in modern technology.

This course provides an in-depth understanding of GNSS, emphasizing hands-on training using BERNESE Software, a scientific multi-GNSS data processing tool developed by the University of Bern. This powerful software facilitates applications such as precise point positioning (PPP), baseline processing, and network solutions for delivering high-precision results for advanced geodetic research.
Participants will explore the mathematical foundations of GNSS and gain practical skills through intensive sessions using BERNESE 5.4, preparing them to leverage GNSS for a wide array of professional applications.
