G-Nut/Anubis application

G-Nut/Anubis is a command-line tool for a quality check of modern data from all available GNSS constellations providing full quantitative and qualitative control with support of GNSS navigation messages:

  • observation statistics (counts of observations, signals, bands, satellites of GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, SBAS, QZSS, IRNSS)
  • standard point positioning (if data and navigation messages provided for GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou)
  • pre-processing including clock-jumps and cycle-slip detection and other interruptions over all constellations, frequencies and signals
  • satellite elevations and azimuths (if supported with constellation-specific navigation messages)
  • elevation-specific histograms, satellite ascending/descending times for horizon and user elevation cut-off
  • pseudo-range multipath and noise
  • carrier-phase signal-to-noise ratio
  • data gaps and small data pieces
  • outputs in specific XTR and minimalistic standard XML formats
  • other useful lists and statistics (satellite navigation data availability, satellite healthy status etc.)

The application is implemented exploiting the G-Nut core library developed originally at Geodetic Observatory Pecny (Václavovic and Douša, 2016). Since January 2018, it has been further maintained and developed by the G-Nut Software s.r.o. company which is a spin-off of the RIGTC/GOP. G-Nut/Anubis (free) provides a free application for the RINEX file qualitative and quantitative monitoring. It is released under GNU GPL. The G-Nut Software s.r.o. provides additionally Anubis Extra and Anubis Real-Time (RT) advanced commercial versions.
