Standalone utilities

There is a set of standalone utilities installed together with the module module which are build on top of gnssanalysis.

diffutil

A utility originally created for automated testing of the computed GNSS files relative to the known good solution files. The simplest use case for the diffutil is to call it with two GNSS files specified after -i:

diffutil -i file1 file2

diffutil parses files' extensions and automatically calls a command needed, e.g. sp3 for file.sp3. It is also possible to specify the command manually in case file extensions are non-standard or missing.

diffutil -i file1 file2 sp3 # sp3 is a command inside diffutil

snxmap

Reads any number of sinex files given, specifically the SITE/ID block and creates an interactive html map with all the stations plotted. Every file will get a unique color marker, with decreasing size for each additional marker, constructing "lollipops" at common stations. This allows seeing intersections of stations within files to be easily seen. The sinex files may also be compressed (either .Z or .gz)

How to use:

snxmap snxfile1 snxfile2.Z snxfile3.gz

-o path_to_output

sp3merge

Merges any number of sp3 files together creating sp3 file of any length. Could also accept clk files to populate merged sp3 with clock offset values.

How to use:

sp3merge -s file1.sp3 file2.sp3.Z file3.sp3.gz -c file1.clk file2.clk.Z file3.clk.gz

log2snx

A utility to parse collection of igs-format station files and create a sinex file with required station information - location, station hardware etc.

How to use:

log2snx -l "~/logfiles/*/*log"

trace2mongo (needs update)

Converts tracefile to the mongo database that is compatible with Ginan's mongo output for EDA

gnss-filename

Determines appropriate filename for GNSS based on the content

orbq

Compares two sp3 files and outputs statistics to the terminal window.

How to use:

orbq -i IGS2R03FIN_20191990000_01D_05M_ORB.SP3 TUG0R03FIN_20191990000_01D_05M_ORB.SP3

clkq

Compares two clk files and outputs statistics to the terminal window. How to use:

clkq -i IGS2R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK COD0R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK

Reject satellites

You are able to provide a regex to reject satellites, e.g.:

clkq -i IGS2R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK COD0R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK --reject "G18"

INFO:root:Removed the following satellites from second file: '['G18']'

Normalisation Procedure

And you are also able to provide a normalisation parameter to choose how the data is normalised (daily, epoch), e.g.:

clkq -i IGS2R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK COD0R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK --norm "daily"

INFO:root:Using daily offsets for common mode removal
INFO:root:---removing common mode from clk 2---
INFO:root:Using daily offsets for common mode removal

These can also be stacked:

clkq -i IGS2R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK COD0R03FIN_20191990000_01D_30S_CLK.CLK --norm "daily" --norm "epoch"

Some usage examples

Combination of sinex solutions files

Combination of with a frame file projected to a midday of a date of interest Usage examples:

• Daily comnination with frame_of_day centered at midday

from gnssanalysis import gn_combi
daily_comb_neq = gn_combi.addneq(snx_filelist=_glob.glob('/data/cddis/2160/[!sio][!mig]*0.snx.Z'),frame_of_day=frame_of_day)

• Weekly combination with frame_of_day centered at week's center:

weekly_comb_neq = gn_combi.addneq(snx_filelist=_glob.glob('/data/cddis/2160/[!sio][!mig]*.snx.Z'),frame_of_day=frame_of_day)

The frame of day could be generated using a respective function from gn_frame module:

from gnssanalysis import gn_frame, gn_datetime

frame_datetime = gn_datetime.gpsweeksec2datetime(2160,43200)

frame_of_day = gn_frame.get_frame_of_day(date_or_j2000=frame_datetime, itrf_path_or_df = '/data/cddis/itrf2014/ITRF2014-IGS-TRF.SNX.gz',discon_path_or_df='/data/cddis/itrf2014/ITRF2014-soln-gnss.snx',psd_path_or_df='/data/cddis/itrf2014/ITRF2014-psd-gnss.snx')
