About SHAO

Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) has long history in research of Astronomy and Geodesy. The Center for Astro-geodynamics Research (UCAR) engages in measurement and analysis of the motion of the Earth and underlying dynamical mechanisms using the modern space techniques, including space Geodesy and astronomy. We operate a core site (SHAO) with co-location of VLBI,SLR and GNSS equipments in the supporting the GGOS geodetic core network. We maintained the analysis centers for VLBI, SLR and GNSS.

SHAO hosts the Central Bureau of the Asia-Pacific Space Geodynamics (APSG) program, which unites all relevant activities in the Asia-Pacific region into a cooperative research project in plate tectonic, crustal motion and deformation, and sea level changes.

SHAO is the current one of collaborative coordinators in the establishment of the Crustal Movement Observation Network of China (CMONOC), which includes ~260 GNSS fiducial sites and ~2000 GNSS campaign sites.

GNSS Data Analysis at SHAO

The Group of GNSS Data Analysis and Applications at SHAO was established early 2011. Routine GNSS data analysis using global GNSS network together the CMONOC network has been established since then. The products have been utilized and acknowledged in many key space programs of China.

Our main activities  are:

  • Data analysis and products evaluation of the CMONOC network [CMONOC Network]
  • Data analysis and products provision of the IGS network

The GNSS data analysis at SHA is the integrated GNSS solution [Presentation at IGS Bias Workshop 2012] with products presented in the same ITRF reference frames. All satellite clocks are in the same defined time frame as GPS with a sampling of 30 seconds. Time offsets among GNSS systems are monitored. 

Available GNSS products are:
