GPS気象学：GPS水蒸気情報システムの構築と気象学·測地学·水文学への応用に関する研究

摘要

The Global Positioning System was developed during 1970-80 in the United States. In 1994,The Geographical Survey Institute (GSI) of Japan began partial services of the nationwide GPSnetwork named GEONET (GPS Earth Observation NETwork). Prior to the start of the GEONETservice, Japanese geodesists and meteorologists held the first workshop on "GPS TroposphericDelay" at the National Astronomical Observatory Mizusawa and recognized the importance ofGPS meteorology with a suggestion of N. Mannoji from the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA).After one year feasibility study based on a concept proposed by H.
