GRAS Zenith Pseudo Ranges and Carrier Phases - Metop

Abstract:
The GRAS Zenith pseudo range and carrier phases provide measurements from the GPS Receiver onboard Metop in both the L1 and the L2 frequencies. This measurements might be used to perform a precise orbit determination (POD) of the Metop satellite. In addition these data might also have some application in geodesy and gravity estimation in the future. Information about the ionosphere can be extracted from the data. Data is provided in the Receiver Independent Exchange (RINEX) format at 1Hz data rate. Metop-A data are available in the Data Centre up to 15/11/2021.
