Can we measure snow depth with GPS receivers?
[1] Snow is an important component of the climate system and a critical storage component in the hydrologic cycle. However, in situ observations of snow distribution are sparse, and remotely sensed products are imprecise and only available at a coarse spatial scale. GPS geodesists have long recognized that snow can affect a GPS signal, but it has not been shown that a GPS receiver placed in a s...
متن کاملLidar measurement of snow depth: a review
Laser altimetry (lidar) is a remote-sensing technology that holds tremendous promise for mapping snow depth in snow hydrology and avalanche applications. Recently lidar has seen a dramatic widening of applications in the natural sciences, resulting in technological improvements and an increase in the availability of both airborne and ground-based sensors. Modern sensors allow mapping of vegetat...
متن کاملSnow depth sensing using the GPS L2C signal with a dipole antenna
Prior research has shown that the currently deployed geodetic global positioning system (GPS) stations can be used to measure snow depth in an area around the antenna installation via GPS interferometric reflectometry (GPS-IR). Although such a technique provides the advantages of large spatial coverage and high temporal measurement sampling, there are also drawbacks in using geodetic equipment ...
متن کاملGPS Snow Depth Meter with Geometry-free Linear Combinations of Carrier Phases
Multipath in Global Positioning System (GPS) is the interference of the microwave signals directly from satellites and those reflected before reaching the antenna, typically by the ground. Because reflected signals cause positioning errors, GPS antennas are designed to reduce such interference. Recent studies show that multipath could be utilized to infer the properties of the ground around the...
متن کاملLidar Measurement of Snow Depth: Accuracy and Error Sources
Airborne laser altimetry (lidar) is a remote sensing technology that holds tremendous promise for mapping snow depth in snow hydrology and avalanche applications. In recent years lidar has seen a dramatic widening of applications in the natural sciences, resulting in technological improvements and an increase in the availability of sensors. Modern sensors allow recording of multiple pulse retur...
