RTD-Net

RTD-Net is a unique software solution for continuous monitoring of permanent GPS networks operating dual-frequency receivers.

RTD-Net is a unique software solution for continuous monitoring of permanent GPS networks operating dual-frequency receivers. RTD-Net provides Precise Instantaneous GPS ("ΠGPS") positioning for the entire network.

This revolutionary advance in high-precision GPS analysis provides for robust real-time integrity monitoring and enhanced early warning capabilities. For the first time, the user can determine the state of the network independently at each instant in time. This "network epoch" is the basic building block of RTD-Net and the software can easily manipulate sequences of independent network epochs to automatically monitor changes in the state of the network. RTD-Net controls the GPS receivers, downloads data and converts to RINEX. It analyzes the data, and generates alarms, statistics, reports and more. It carries out a continuous, simultaneous adjustment of the data modeling the dynamic state of the entire network caused by ionosphere, troposphere and other factors.
