Diseño e implementación de un sistema automático de gestión de información satelital de las antenas GNSS del Ecuador para corrección de errores por postproceso.

Abstract

The study aimed to design an automated system for processing information in the Military Geographic Institute antennas (IGM). Currently, GNSS satellite information is manually processed at the antennas, resulting in long processing times and requiring the operator to monitor antenna operations constantly. A system was developed to address this issue automatically, monitoring and processing the information conforming with all necessary protocols and standards to ensure efficient data that can be uploaded to the SIRGAS portal for global use. The process was divided into three parts: the first stage involved analyzing the current methodology of the SIRGAS information center. The second stage was to design and develop an automated system to retrieve information from the antennas, process it, and store it in its respective path to be ready for the portal. The third stage was implementing this system on the primary server, where satellite information must be processed. The results showed that information is processed automatically daily when the satellite data is available at the antennas, thanks to the quality methods and protocols implemented. Finally, A comparison was made between data collected manually and those processed automatically through post-processing exercises. In summary, implementing an automated information processing system at the IGM antennas allows for greater efficiency and speed in information processing to enhance data quality and accuracy while streamlining data processing user access to information.
