Abstract
<div>GNSS, one of which is the more familiar US Global Positioning System (GPS), have become part of our everyday life… in our cars, phones and even smartwatches – helping us know where we are and where we want to go. Join me to explore advances in the analysis of GNSS in an Australia context.</div><div>Knowing our ‘place in space’ is an inherent human emotive connection and Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), as a technology, has become prevalent in the world around us, and as a society we have become reliant on basic functions such as knowing where we are, and how to navigate from one place to another.</div><div>Advances in analysis of GNSS observations has led to us being able to determine a location down to the sub-millimetre; calculate precise orbital arcs of low earth satellite platforms that are exploding in numbers for innovative communication technologies and earth observation; define how wet the troposphere is, and assist weather forecasting models; and even provide real-time precise positioning at the centimetre-level for a variety of applications.</div><div><br></div><div>This presentation will take you through advances in positioning and navigation technologies through the lens of GNSS products and services based at Geoscience Australia, and how these benefit everyday Australians.</div><div><br></div>
