Abstract:Using three different strategies, we processed the land subsidence monitoring data collected by a mixed set of single-frequency and dual-frequency receivers installed in Nansha, Guangzhou, from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. The result shows that during maximum solar sunspot cycle periods, ionospheric disturbances corrupted the precision of GPS data processing, even with the baselines less than 10 km. GPS measurement precision shows a standard deviation of about 5 mm, which is quite consistent with leveling results.
