Abstract

The distribution of water vapor in troposphere is very uneven and has a strong sense of temporal and spatial variation. The weather forecast requires accurate temporal and spatial information of the atmospheric humidity field. The atmospheric water vapor information collected by traditional meteorological observation methods has lower temporal-spatial resolution and higher observation cost. Using GNSS to obtain atmospheric water vapor information has great potential of high quality, high temporal and spatial resolution, low cost, all weather conditions and real-time monitoring. GNSS meteorology has an important application value for atmospheric monitoring, extreme weather forecast and regional climate research. This paper summarizes the state and progress of several respects of ground-based GNSS meteorology including GNSS atmospheric vapor tomography, GNSS-derived data water vapor assimilation and GNSS meteorological applications. The strategies and methods for GNSS tomography are summarized. And the development and application prospects of the Multi-GNSS (GPS/Beidou/Glonass/Galileo) meteorology are also discussed.
