RESEARCH on ZENITH TROPOSPHERIC DELAY MODELING of REGIONAL CORS NETWORK

Abstract

By calculating the zenith troposphere information from 11 reference stations of the CORS network in Guilin City, Guangxi Province in 2018 by GAMIT10.6 as the reference values, analyzing the relationship between the zenith troposphere and the elevation, as well as the latitude in the Guilin Region, building a model for the zenith tropospheric delay (ZTD) suitable for the Guilin Region, uniformly selecting 8 CORS reference stations in the Guilin Region to build a new model, comparing with the ZTD estimated by GAMIT10.6 and studying the applicability of the new model in the Guilin Region, the results showed that: 1) In the Guilin Region, the ZTD presented linear negative correlation with the station elevation; 2) the ZTD estimated by the new model was well consistent with the reference value, with high precision, and increased with the elevation.
