SatNavAnalyser
SatNavAnalyser is a SW-tool for GNSS data analyses.
Contact requests please to: contact@nav-studio.de
SatNavAnalyser allows typical GNSS data analyses in different domains. It supports
raw-data analyses as well as analyses in position domain up to service-volume and
integrity analyses. To this respect, all RINEX (and few other) file formats are
supported. Special consideration is put on easy usability and visualisations.
Automation of data evaluations is supported. A multi-GNSS positioning
functionality (absolute and differential) is also included.
Functionalities
Data analyses
- Analyses in raw data domain (pseudo-ranges, carrier-phases, Doppler, C/N0, CmC, etc.)
- Analyses in navigation data domain (satellite positions, change of ephemeris, theoretical DOP values)
- Analyses in position data domain (trajectories, position error components)
- Analyses in meteo data domain (pressure, temperature, wind speed and direction, etc.)
- Analyses in ionospheric data domain (all GNSS models: Klobuchar, NeQuick-G, BDGIM)
- Analyses in service-volume domain (number of visible satellites, PDOP, HDOP, VDOP, availability)
- Analyses in integrity domain (via Stanford plots)
- Analyses of ground-station networks
Visualisations
- Visualisation of data time-series
- Visualisation of satellite constellations on a zoom-able world map
- Visualisation of user/satellite polar plots (allowing also dynamic and orbital users)
- Visualisation of satellite footprints
- Correlation of data and statistics versus azimuth and/or elevation
- Visualisation of service-volume results on a zoomable map
- Visualisation of satellite visibility and observation availability

Example Screenshots
The friendly user interface allows a comfortably simple visualisation and
therefore efficient data analysis. Time differences of time series data,
for example, can be computed via few mouse clicks only. Multi-plots show
data of same type of different objects in a single plot. This way,
pseudo-range measurements of several signals of one satellite, or signal
powers of a specific signal or a signal component of several satellites
can be compared directly. Such comparison analyses are also supported
in position domain. Trajectories or position error components can be
viewed as time series or in a two-dimensional horizontal system.
Observation data and their time differences as well as statistics can
also be plotted against azimuth and elevation.
