Abstract

The velocity vector field of the dense network of regional GNSS reference sta-tions provides the basic data for the analysis of deformation processes in the faults, for the study of the intraplate structure of regions and other geodynamical studies. To address these problems, the database of GNSS station velocities (VDB) approxi-mately covering the East European Craton was created and is now supported in co-operation with the colleagues of various geodetic organizations. For the beginning of 2019, the VDB has uniformly processed data for more than 350 GNSS stations. The VDB is available on the website of the Pulkovo observatory, where the full de-scription of the technique used is also provided: http://www.gaoran.ru/russian/database/station/databasev_eng.html. The initial GNSS observations are processed by the Gipsy 6.4 (JPL) software using the PPP strategy. The whole range of standard model parameters and correc-tions are taken into account (absolute antenna calibration, final orbital parameters and clock corrections (IGS14), Earth orientation parameters IERS (C04), tropospheric model VMF1/ECMWF, all the solid Earth’s tides, including corresponding polar tides, ocean tidal loads (GOT4.8) and ionospheric effects, containing second-order terms in the IONEX model). The complete set of the mass loading corrections are also taken into account according to IMSL (http://massloading.net/). Seasonal variations in the GNSS position series are estimated and then removed. The mean errors for each velocity component of GNSS station velocities are given in the VDB for both normal and flicker noise distribution.

AB  - The velocity vector field of the dense network of regional GNSS
reference sta-tions provides the basic data for the analysis of
deformation processes in the faults, for the study of the intraplate
structure of regions and other geodynamical studies. To address these
problems, the database of GNSS station velocities (VDB) approxi-
mately covering the East European Craton was created and is now
supported in co-operation with the colleagues of various geodetic
organizations. For the beginning of 2019, the VDB has uniformly
processed data for more than 350 GNSS stations. The VDB is available
on the website of the Pulkovo observatory, where the full de-
scription of the technique used is also provided:
http://www.gaoran.ru/russian/database/station/databasev_eng.html.
The initial GNSS observations are processed by the Gipsy 6.4 (JPL)
software using the PPP strategy. The whole range of standard model
parameters and correc-tions are taken into account (absolute antenna
calibration, final orbital parameters and clock corrections (IGS14),
Earth orientation parameters IERS (C04), tropospheric model
VMF1/ECMWF, all the solid Earth’s tides, including corresponding
polar tides, ocean tidal loads (GOT4.8) and ionospheric effects,
containing second-order terms in the IONEX model). The complete set
of the mass loading corrections are also taken into account according
to IMSL (http://massloading.net/). Seasonal variations in the GNSS
position series are estimated and then removed.  The mean errors for
each velocity component of GNSS station velocities are given in the
VDB for both normal and flicker noise distribution.
