This paper deals with a post-processing of GPS receiver data in order to acquire a reference flight trajectory of an aircraft test. The flight test using an aircraft that is carried out several times since 2007 is the integrated test to verify the performance of the tracking and communications facilities in Naro Space Center and Jeju Tracking Center. In order to analyze performance of the tracking and navigation equipments, true reference data should be used for performance comparisons. Therefore off-the-shelf commercial GPS receiver, DL-V3 made by NovAtel Inc., is operated on the test to collect the GPS navigation data and the collected data is post-processed by GrafNav which is the off-the-shelf post-processing program made by NovAtel Inc. Through the post-processing of the collected data, a reference trajectory is generated with small error range about several decade centimeter level.

In order to estimate accurate position by GPS observations, it is prerequisite to define both of the correct function model and the realistic stochastic model. In the case that un-modeled outliers exist in observations, estimates become biased, and their standard deviations are unable to be used as a measure which represents their accuracy. Hence, such outliers should be appropriately removed from the observations before estimating final solutions, so that the accuracy can be maximized with the improvement of the reliability. For this purpose, this research deals with quality control and quality measure computation algorithms for GPS stand-alone positioning. After theoretical studies, all the algorithms have been implemented and tested with real observations. Results of the tests indicate that the reliability of the estimated position is improved by increasing redundancy as well as using good satellite geometry and more realistic stochastic model. Moreover, the adaptation of the quality control procedure enable to improve positioning reliability and accuracy by appropriately excluding outlier in observations.

GPS baseline analysis is a mathematical procedure which estimates a baseline vector from carrier-phase double-differenced observations. Least squares technique is generally applied for the processing and integer ambiguities in the observations should be resolved to obtain maximum accuracy of the solution. In GPS control surveying, after assembling the baseline solutions into a network, adjustment is performed to derive final coordinate sets of unknown points. This paper deals with details of GPS baseline analysis for the $2^{nd}$ order national geodetic network adjustment. After reviewing GPS campaigns carried out by National Geographic Information Institute (NGII) and their observations. technical issues and considerations for the GPS baseline analysis are presented with emphasis of selecting the processing strategies and software. Finally, the analyzed results will be evaluated by examining the close of figures formed by joining the processed baseline vectors.

In this paper, the performance of the KOMPSAT-1 orbit determination (OD) accuracy at the ground station was analyzed by using the flight data. The Bayesian least squares estimation was used for the orbit determination and the assessment of the orbit accuracy was evaluated based on orbit overlap comparisons. We also compared the result from OD using GPS navigation solutions with NORAD TLE and the result from OD using range data. Furthermore, the effect of observation type and OBT drift on the accuracy was investigated. As a consequence, It is shown that the OD accuracy using only GPS position data is on the order of 5m RMS (Root Mean Square) with 4 hrs arc overlap for the 30hr arc and the GPS velocity data is not proper as a observation for the OD due to its inferior quality. The significant deterioration of the accuracy due to the critical clock bias was not founded by means of the comparison of OD result from other observations.

Digital road map generation is primarily based on artificial satellite photographing or in-site manual survey work. Therefore, these map generation procedures require a lot of time and a large budget to create and update road maps. Consequently, people have tried to develop automated map generation systems using GPS trajectory data sets obtained by public vehicles. A fundamental problem in this road generation procedure involves the extraction of representative trajectory such as main roads. Extracting a representative trajectory requires the base data set of piecewise line segments(GPS-trajectories), which have close starting and ending points. So, geometrically similar trajectories are selected for clustering before extracting one representative trajectory from among them. This paper proposes a new divide- and-conquer approach by partitioning the whole map region into regular grid sub-spaces. We then try to find similar trajectories by sweeping. Also, we applied the $Fr{\acute{e}}chet$ distance measure to compute the similarity between a pair of trajectories. We conducted experiments using a set of real GPS data with more than 500 vehicle trajectories obtained from Gangnam-gu, Seoul. The experiment shows that our grid partitioning approach is fast and stable and can be used in real applications for vehicle trajectory clustering.

This paper describes an accuracy analysis of newly developed gravimetric geoid and an improvement of developed geoid using GPS/Levelling data. We developed the KGEOID05 model corrected with the correction term. The correction term is modelled using the difference between GPS/Levelling derived geoidal heights and gravimetric geoidal heights. The stochastic model used in the calculation of correction term is the least squares collocation technique based on second-order Markov covariance function. 373 GPS stations were used to model the correction term. The standard deviation of KGEOID05 is about 11 cm and it indicates that we can be determined accurate heights ($2{\sim}3\;cm$) when we made precise modelling using KGEOID05 and a few GPS measurements for the local area.

GPS has been increasingly used in high precision positioning thanks to rapid advances of GPS technology. In order to acquire precise coordinates from GPS, it is important to solve accurately integer ambiguity inherent in GPS signals. The previous methods to solve this ambiguity were mostly based on multi-epoch data but recently a method based on single-epoch data has been developed. In this study, we selected three sets of software based on these methods, applied them to GPS baseline processing, and analyzed the experimental results. From these analyses, we have also verified the potential of their uses in real time precision positioning.

GPS/GIS Related Information Technology evolves drastically and a great quantity of spatial information is available to users who require highly qualitative spatial information services. Hence the development of GIS tools that can improve position accuracy and maintenance efficiency is required. To meet various requirements from users. we developed a GPS data processing component based on OLE/COM by utilizing GDK which is a unique domestic GIS product. Also we developed an application package that includes the GPS data processing component to implement GPS into GIS. The development of GPS data processing component will contribute toward the expansion of component-wise GIS softwares.
