# GNSS_Refractometry_SWE

Snow water equivalent (SWE) estimation based on GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) refractometry using the biased up-component and post processing in RTKLIB.


The biased up-component of a short GNSS baseline between a base antenna (mounted on a pole) and a rover antenna (mounted underneath the snowpack) is used in this approach. High-end receivers are used in a field setup, connected to high-end multi-frequency and multi-GNSS antennas. The receivers logged multi-GNSS RINEX data with 30s sampling rate, which are used for post processing using the open-source GNSS processing software RTKLIB. 


The python script contains a workflow from post processing of daily GNSS RINEX files to filtered and plotted SWE timeseries. A RTKLIB configuration file is attached, which is used in Steiner et al. (2022).



The method follows Steiner et al. (2022, 2020): 

Steiner, L.; Studemann, G.; Grimm, D.; Marty, C.; Leinss, S. (Near) Real-Time Snow Water Equivalent Observation Using GNSS Refractometry and RTKLib. 2022, submitted to Sensors.
