Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The student demonstrates knowledge of: - phenomena and errors affecting GNSS positioning, - GNSS techniques based on differenced and undifferenced observations, - long-term and short-term coordinate changes in time, - current techniques for positioning and navigation and the possibilities for combining them, - the available software in the area of study, The student can: - process data from various GNSS measurements using the Precise Point Positioning method and the double-difference method, - solve long-term routine GNSS processing in order to obtain time series of precise coordinates of receivers, - use standard mobile devices to apply advanced GNSS positioning techniques, - use standard mobile devices for positioning and navigation using a combination of location and navigation techniques (GNSS, inertial, using wireless networks)

Summary

The course in the first part provides theoretical and practical knowledge of advanced techniques for positioning using Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). In the second part, it introduces students other existing sensors and techniques usable for localization and navigation in space and the possibility of their combinations.
