SWEPOS Positioning services : status, applications and experiences

Jonsson, Bo ... [et al.]

SWEPOSS, the Swedish network of permanent reference stations, is in IOC operation since 1998 and run by Lantmmteriet, National Land Survey of Sweden. Today (July 2006) the SWEPOS network consists of 120 permanent reference stations for GPS and GLONASS (GNSS). The purpose of SWEPOS is to: Provide L1 and L2 raw data to post-processing users. Provide DGNSS and RTK corrections to real-time users. Act as high-precision control points for Swedish GNSS users. Provide data for scientific studies of crustal motion. Monitor the integrity of the GPS/GLONASS (GNSS) system. Today SWEPOS is used as the basis for the Swedish national reference system, SWEREF 99 and beside many surveying and navigation applications also used for meteorology, timing applications and machine guidance.
