14.15. GNSS Data Processing and Software

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is the purpose of post-processing software in GNSS?

   Hint

   Think about the errors that might be present in raw data.

2. 2.

   Name one benefit of cloud-based GNSS processing.

   Hint

   Consider who might benefit from not needing specific hardware.

3. 3.

   What is the primary function of post-processing software in GNSS?

   • To consolidate data from multiple receivers
   • To correct and process raw data
   • To create new software applications

   Hint

   Think about what happens to raw data.

4. 4.
