Preface: Multi-GNSS: Methods, benefits, challenges, and geosciences applications
Abstract
Over the past decades, the Global Positioning System (GPS), as the first space-based radio-navigation system comprised of a dedicated satellite constellation, has made remarkable contributions to scientific applications (e.g., geodesy, remote sensing, space and fundamental physics) and engineering services (e.g., surveying, navigation, and timing). Currently, with two new and emerging constellations (BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) and Galileo) as well as the ongoing modernization of GPS and GLONASS, the world of satellite navigation is undergoing dramatic changes with excellent potential for extended and more precise and reliable GNSS applications and services.
